Here are just a few of the diverse adventure options available in Chile: Sandboard down various dune types in environments ranging from a barren desert to a Pacific beach.

Raft down one of the stunning and exciting rivers in central or southern Chile. Start with a calm section, and if you dare, try one of the heart-stopping runs of class 4 or 5 rapids. Ride a mountain bike through the stunning slopes, valleys, or deserts to get your adrenaline pumping. The activities are endless and include heliskiing gorgeous mountains, skiing in the austral winter at more than 6,000 feet elevation, and surfing on approximately 2,000 miles of beach.
