San Esteban, Administrative commune in Los Andes Province, Chile.

San Esteban spans across 1,361 square kilometers of land in central Chile's Valparaíso Region, situated at an elevation of 831 meters above sea level.

The territory, formerly known as Aconcagua Arriba, transformed into Las Juntas commune in 1891 and received its current name as Villa de San Esteban in 1898.

The parish of San Esteban, established in 1861, stands at the central plaza and represents the connection to the first Christian martyr, Saint Stephen.

The municipality manages both urban and rural areas, with approximately 52 percent of residents living in the city center and 48 percent in surrounding countryside.

The local climate varies from tundra to Mediterranean cold winter rain patterns, creating different ecosystems along the Aconcagua, Colorado, Juncal, and Recillos rivers.
