O'Higgins Region

O'Higgins Region combines fertile central valleys with rugged Andean terrain in a way that reflects its position between Chile's Pacific coast and the high cordillera. Around San Fernando, the Colchagua Valley is one of Chile's established wine-growing areas, where vineyards stand alongside productive farmland. The Rapel River system shapes much of the interior and feeds Lake Rapel, a large reservoir used for recreation. On the coast, Pichilemu is closely associated with surfing, while Rancagua serves as the regional capital. The region is named for Bernardo O'Higgins, a leading figure in Chilean independence.
