Morro Las Papas, at 1380 meters above sea level, is a popular pre-Andean hill among hikers from Santiago. Its name comes from the curious rock formations at its summit, which resemble a bunch of potatoes, and it is part of the Sierra de Ramón mountain range.
The climb is ideal even for families and beginners.

From the viewpoint, the city unfolds at your feet like a network of avenues, parks, and rooftops that fade into the horizon. Around it, the mountains rise in a vast natural amphitheater, displaying varying shades of green and gray that frame the landscape. A truly breathtaking sight.
