The Andes Rally
2027

Across the Spine of the Andes

Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime rally along the legendary routes of Chile and Argentina, at the wheel of your vintage vehicle, tracing an extraordinary itinerary through some of South America’s most spectacular landscapes.

Starting north toward the spellbinding Atacama Desert — a land of surreal beauty and endless skies. Explore the otherworldly Valley of the Moon, gaze upon the shimmering turquoise waters of the high-altitude Miñiques and Miscanti lagoons, and witness the raw power of the Tatio geysers at sunrise. Pause to unwind in the natural warmth of Puritama’s hot springs before crossing the majestic Andes into Argentina.

Here, the treasures of the northwest await: the rainbow-hued mountains of Purmamarca, the untamed valleys surrounding Salta, the sculpted cliffs of the Quebrada de las Flechas, the sun-drenched vineyards of Cafayate, and the mist-shrouded valleys of Tafí del Valle.

From San Fernando de Catamarca, the road leads to the remarkable natural wonder of El Chiflón — gateway to the breathtaking Talampaya and Ischigualasto national parks, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites celebrated for their dramatic red rock formations and rich paleontological legacy. Continue into the wine-growing heartlands of San Juan, where arid desert plains give way to lush vineyards.

Cross the awe-inspiring Paso Libertadores back into Chile along one of the Andes’ most scenic routes. End your journey by the Pacific, with a refined coastal interlude in Zapallar and Viña del Mar, before returning to Santiago — the perfect finale to an unforgettable rally through the soul of the continent.
