Lo Barnechea

Lo Barnechea sits in the Andes of Chile’s Santiago Metropolitan Region, where the capital’s northeastern outskirts give way to high, snow-prone mountain country. This is the commune’s upper Andean sector, far above Santiago’s urban core and among steep valleys shaped by winter weather. Lo Barnechea extends from city-facing foothills towards the ski terrain of the central Andes, making it part of Santiago’s immediate mountain hinterland. Below, the Mapocho River crosses the commune on its route through the capital. The contrast between metropolitan Santiago and the rugged cordillera defines this extensive municipality.
