We'll begin our exciting journey to the mountain range, heading for the magical Elqui Valley. Our first stop will take us to a sales room for papaya products, giving us a unique sensory experience. We will enjoy a panoramic view of the Puclaro Reservoir and the captivating landscapes and vantage points that make the valley unique.

We'll continue our itinerary until we reach the beautiful city of Vicuña, where we'll explore the charming Plaza de Armas, the famous Bauer Tower, and its church. We'll discover the diversity of local handicrafts and then enjoy lunch at an authentic typical Elqui restaurant.

Afterwards, we will head to the Pisquera to immerse ourselves in the fascinating production and preparation process, which will also allow us to taste its exceptional varieties. Later, we'll explore the picturesque town of Montegrande, with its beautiful church and the Casa-Escuela Museum dedicated to our Nobel Prize winner, Gabriela Mistral. We'll conclude our relaxing day by visiting the picturesque village of Pisco Elqui, where we'll immerse ourselves in its rich history, explore its church, and stroll through its small square, surrounded by local craft shops.
