Lonely Planet review for Cerro San Cristóbal

Smog permitting, the best views over San­tiago are from the peaks and viewpoints of the Parque Metropolitano, better known as Cerro San Cristóbal. At 722 ha, the park is Santiago’s biggest green space, but it’s still decidedly urban: cable cars and a funicular carry you between different landscaped sections, and roads through it are aimed at cars rather than hikers. The park lies north of Bellavista and Providencia and has entrances in both neighborhoods: the cheapest and most logical way to visit is to buy a joint cable car and funicular ticket (adult/child one way CH$2500/1500) to start on one side and finish on the other.

    Fantastic view of the city

    csarno recommends this,

    A great thing to do during the weekend. Go upstars with the Funicular and see the whole city from there. Also for the catholic ones, the statute of the Virgen de la Inmaculada Concepcion is beautifull and inspiring.
