Estadio Regional de Chinquihue, Football stadium in Puerto Montt, Chile
The Estadio Regional de Chinquihue is a multi-level stadium in Puerto Montt with tiered bleachers and an artificial playing surface. The facility holds approximately 10,000 spectators and serves primarily for football matches and other sporting events.
Works began in 1976 on land expropriated by decree in 1975, with levelling and drainage done by PEM workers; the ground was inaugurated on 31 January 1982 for the 39th national amateur championship, promoted by intendente Juan Soler Manfredini. Remodelling ran in two stages, 2009–2010 and a second after budget adjustments following the 2010 earthquake, with final inauguration on 11 June 2013.
The ground lies in Chinquihue, a sector about 10 km from Puerto Montt's centre, on land expropriated in 1975 from the Vera Gallardo successions. It was inaugurated on 31 January 1982 for the 39th Chilean national amateur football championship, a bid secured by Raúl Vargas after he took over the Puerto Montt football association in June 1980. Today Deportes Puerto Montt plays its home matches here in the Liga de Ascenso, and Vicente Pérez Rosales plays in Tercera División B.
The stadium is accessible via Avenida Pacheco Altamirano with clearly marked entrances. Visitors should arrive early for major events as the venue tends to fill quickly.
One side features C-shaped stands opening toward the canal with views of Tenglo Island. Spectators can enjoy water and island views while watching matches.
