An itinerary full of hairpin bends and steep slopes. Odysseys, including exhilaratingly terrifying climbs. Winged adventures through crystal-clear skies. Adventures in Santiago: horsemen galloping through a latticework of fertile valleys, happily exhausted mountaineers on a snowy peak, and cyclists showered with the noble dust of a tough, winding mountain track.

Effort and skill, weariness and perspiration, the passion and the perseverance necessary to vanquish whimsical trails and roaring rapids, or to negotiate steep ski slopes against blustering winds, in adrenalin-fueled duels that are taking place constantly near the Chilean capital city, a tourism destination offering sportsmen a wide choice of activities.

Adventures on the river and on the snow, in the sky and on the land, on rocks and mountains. Adventures of every conceivable kind, exciting, exhausting, soothing or thrilling. Adventures in a cosmopolitan metropolis whose surroundings are bucolic, with green or snowy valleys and enormous mountain chains that ascend to the sky.

Entertaining horseback excursions, mountain bike rides, exhausting treks, climbs to remote summits, rafting and kayaking in swollen rivers, skiing on snowy valley slopes, gliding in fragile hang-gliders are but a few of the sporting activities possible in Santiago, a city wide open to adventure, a city where taking risks is "part of the game".
