Cascada de las Ánimas, Nature reserve in San José de Maipo, Chile.

Cascada de las Ánimas is a nature sanctuary in the Maipo Valley featuring mountainous terrain with valleys, natural springs, and cascading waterfalls throughout the landscape. The property offers multiple lodging choices including rustic lodges and riverside suites for visitors.

The Chilean government formally recognized this private property as a protected nature sanctuary in 1995. The official designation was made to preserve the ecological value of the land for future generations.

The name Cascada de las Ánimas, "Waterfall of the Souls", refers to the waterfall inside the sanctuary. The private park is also a Santuario de la Naturaleza, a Chilean protection category created by Law No. 17,288 on National Monuments, and since 1995 the land has been managed under that status alongside reforestation work.

The site is accessible by foot via marked trails suitable for different ability levels. Visitors should bring sturdy footwear and weatherproof clothing as mountain terrain can be challenging and conditions change quickly.

The sanctuary features ropes courses, canopy tours, and whitewater activities along the Maipo River set against the Andes backdrop. These adventure experiences attract visitors seeking outdoor thrills beyond typical nature walks.
