Los cafes del Diego

Los Cafes del Diego is a rural village in northern Chile situated on arid terrain. Traditional houses line unpaved roads that form the settlement's basic structure and connect the community.

The settlement formed in the mid-20th century during rural expansion in the Coquimbo Region. It developed to support agricultural activities and settlement in the local area.

Farming shapes daily life here, with residents tending crops using methods suited to the dry climate. Agriculture connects people to the land and marks the seasonal rhythm of the settlement.

The village connects to Los Vilos via local roads providing access to basic services. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and bring sun protection as the area is exposed and mostly rural.

Residents have maintained traditional water management techniques passed down over generations in this region. These adapted methods allow farming to continue despite the area's chronic water scarcity.
