San Cristóbal Hill

Less than 2 km..a little stoney but gentle incline. The problem is the heat..a little shade in places. The views are amazing and at the top Santiago tells its own story. The peaceful church is worth taking a breather to see the beautiful simplicity, and the inside artistry in Mary as well as her sculpture is wonderful.

Lovely view of Santiago city! I would recommend going up by cable car and walking down (it takes about 40 min) with wonderful views of the city.

Very beautiful place to go to see 360° views of Santiago and the mountains. The top of the hill has many things to do as well as a lot of walking around. It's a must stop for any tourist to get a good feel and birds eye view of the city. Good for all ages and very well maintained.

What a lovely run I had. It’s perhaps one of the nicest places in Santiago. Lots of people doing sports and enjoying high elevation sights. I had the chance to go to mass. It was so cool to see devoted people. It gets better! They offer hot coffee at the end of the service! Lovely

I did a return trip up to the top using the funicular - but there’s plenty of ticketing options that include using the cable car as well. At the top I did ‘the loop’ and got good views of the city. The wait wasn’t too long, you can fit a lot of people onto each of the 2 cars. Staff are all friendly and speak good English

San Cristobal Hill in Santiago, Chile, is a must-visit destination offering a blend of natural beauty and panoramic views. Rising 300 meters above the city, the hill is crowned by the iconic 22-meter statue of the Virgin Mary, which adds a serene atmosphere to the summit. Accessible by funicular, cable car, or hiking trails, the journey itself is delightful. Once at the top, the sweeping vistas of Santiago against the backdrop of the Andes are breathtaking. The hill also features the charming Japanese Garden and a small zoo, making it a perfect spot for families and nature enthusiasts. Highly recommended!

I went up via Telerefico and went down via funicular. There were no lines at all at the Teleferico side. The view of Santiago up there is stunning. A must visit I must say when in Santiago, Chile

Breath taking views from Santiago de Chile! I visited San Cristobal Hill on Friday 6.7.2024. It wasn't crowded at all. The day was not sunny but just right before sunset, you could see the sun at the distance which it was amazing. I used the Santiago Teleferico to go up the hill. As I mentioned on my way up, the line was short, it took me about 10 minutes to start my trip. On my way down it was a bit longer but still it took me like 15 minutes. The staff is very efficient and this helps to avoid long lines. It is worth visiting. Hopefully I can go again with clear skies so I can enjoy the sunset.
