Top Active Leisure Sport in Chile

Keep an eye on the weather and snow reports! I didn't, and ended up missing out on a good day of skiing because I didn't know it would warm up quickly.

Make sure to book your ski pass online ahead of time! I saved a bunch by doing this instead of buying it at the resort. Just check their website for deals.

If you plan on using the equipment, my advic is to bring some chalk for grip. It makes a world of difference, trust me. When I forgot mine, I struggled a bit

I suggest wearing breathable and flexible clothing. I wore jeans and regretted it almost immediately – not the best choice for parkour moves, haha!

check out the food stalls outside after your session. i think they have really affordable and tasty options. it’s a nice way to refuel without breaking the bank!

I recommend hitting the park right when it opens around 10 AM. This way, you'll have fewer crowds and more space to practice your moves. Nothing worse than tripping over someone else's feet!

Arrive by 9 AM to get the best views of the waterfalls before it gets too crowded. I wished I’d gone earlier for some great photo ops!

I recommend exploring the nearby beaches too. La Puntilla is a hidden gem and way less busy. A perfect spot for a chill afternoon!

If you plan to eat out, check out the smaller local restaurants instead of the touristy ones. They have amazing seafood and prices that won’t break your wallet. My meal was way better at a local spot!

My advice is to bring cash, especially if you want to grab some local street food. Some places don't take cards, and the food is super tasty and affordable!

I think renting a surfboard from one of the local shops is the best move. You can negotiate prices easily and it's often cheaper than big name stores. I saved a few bucks that way!

I suggest you arrive by 8:30 AM if you want a good parking spot and shorter lines for rentals. Trust me, it gets crowded quick!

Check the weather beforehand! The conditions can change rapidly and I ended up getting caught in a snowstorm without the right gear. Not fun!

I think you should rent equipment right at El Colorado instead of the city. It saved me time and hassle! Plus, it was pretty affordable. I've seen reviews saying the rentals are in great condition too.

I recommend downloading a weather app before you go... It really helps you plan your day... I made the mistake of heading out without checking, and got caught in some gnarly conditions
