Carbon Neutral Trip
Wedged deliciously between the Andes and the Pacific, Chile’s wine country pairs adventure with a splash (or two) of vino. Pedal scenic countryside roads with Pacific panoramas and indulge in dreamy picnics, barrel tastings and chef-led culinary wizardry. We've convinced our winemaking friends to spill their secrets, so bring your thirst for adventure, your refined palate... and maybe stretchy pants.
Sample wines from some of the top winemakers in the country. The quality and complexity of Chilean wines is likely to surprise you.
Day by Day
No two trips are ever the same, but this will give you a taste of what your journey will be like.
Day 1
Rendezvous in Santiago and head due west into Casablanca Valley. Enjoy a tasting at a local winery before setting out on a pleasant ride through vast farmland and eucalyptus groves, eventually reaching our hotel for time to enjoy the pool and amenities before dinner.
Activity:
50 km (31 mi.) ride through gently rolling terrain, tranquil farmland and small villages in the Casablanca Valley
Day 2
Take a loop ride through the stunning San Antonio Valley today with the Andes towering in the background. Pause for a lunchtime wine tasting and horse handling demonstration then, enjoy a walking tour through the UNESCO city of Valparaíso before dinner.
Activity:
38 km (24 mi.) loop ride from the hotel through scenic San Antonio Valley
Day 3
Spend the day pedalling away from vines and emerging onto the coast, waves crashing on your right and mountain views on your left. Stop to sample homemade empanadas at lunch before rolling along to our oceanside hotel to relax or try your hand at surfing. Take in the waves over dinner.
Activity:
49 km (31 mi.) winding and rolling route that finishes running parallel to the Pacific
Day 4
From the coast to the countryside ride to your secret picnic lunch destination with views of the Andes with the option of a century ride. Reach a new hotel immersed in the vines. This evening, we'll be hosted by our friend for a magical night at their food and wine studio.
Activity:
100 km (62 mi.) Century Ride through the heart of agricultural Chile, past small villages and hamlets
Day 5
Ride past Santa Cruz into the Apalta Valley—the country's premium winemaking region. Stop in at one of our favourite wineries for a tasting along with lunch before continuing to your luxurious stay at the Viña Vik, where winemaking and hospitality has been mastered.
Activity:
55 km (40 mi.) gently rolling ride through farmland and orchards
Day 6
Set out on a loop ride through the Millahue landscape dominated by estancias. This afternoon, discover Vina Vik's estate by foot, bike, or horse after sampling the wine. Later you'll find a special final night celebration at the stunning property.
Activity:
55 km (29 mi.) loop ride in Millahue valley of glorious riding through well-manicured villages and orchards
