The territory was originally inhabited by the Picunche people, who lived in central Chile long before European arrival. Archaeological findings also point to prehistoric large mammals that once roamed this area.
The territory belonged to Picunche communities who inhabited the central region of Chile before European colonization.
The park is accessible by public transportation, and planning a visit in advance is straightforward and possible any time of year. Good footwear and a water bottle are recommended, as trails can have different conditions depending on the season.
One popular trail leads to a waterfall located at significant elevation, offering views down toward the metropolitan region below. This combination of nature and distant city views makes the route particularly appealing to many visitors.
