What to Know About Chile
North to South
Chile runs about 4,300 kilometres down the Pacific coast, never more than a few hundred wide, with the Andes along its eastern edge the whole way.
Getting Around
Domestic flights are the practical way to cover the distance, with long-distance coaches filling the gaps. Santiago is the hub for both.
Peak Season
December to February is summer and the main window for Patagonia, when trails and lodges are open and daylight runs long. It is also the busiest and priciest.
Shoulder Season
March to May and September to November suit Santiago, Valparaíso and the wine valleys. Autumn brings the harvest, spring brings the green.
The Atacama
The driest desert in the world sits in the north around San Pedro, with salt flats, high lagoons and some of the clearest night skies anywhere. Open all year.
Altitude
Much of the north sits above 2,500 metres. Give yourself a day or two to adjust before anything strenuous, and expect cold nights after hot days.
Most trips start in Santiago and go one of two ways, north into the desert or south into Patagonia.
