Easily a wonderful park that Santiago should be proud to have. This is as good or better than most…read moreparks we have in the US. There are multiple playgrounds, a body weight fitness park, hike and bike trails, a pond, open fields, and a fantastic view of the skyline above it all. You could easily spend hours here e joying the day. There are a fair amount of trees so shade can be found. Restrooms are available for free near the southern part of the park. It's very pet and kid friendly.

What a great park for people of all ages and dogs, too! On a Saturday, we took our dogs for a quick…read morewalk to check out the enclosed dog park. When we arrived, there were a lot of people enjoying the park, mostly in the shade on picnic blankets because it was quite warm. The entire park is very well maintained; we saw several people working there from maintenance to security. Our priority was the dog park, which is small and narrow but really lovely! It has one main entrance; once through the first gate, you can remove your dogs' harnesses/leashes, before entering through the second gate. Inside, there is a nice, modern agility course (circuit). Our old dogs were pretty worn out from their walk, so they weren't into the course, but there was plenty more for them to checkout. There are large bushes that run along two sides of the park. One of my dogs discovered a pathway between the shrubs and the wall and just nosed around back there in the cool shade. The water fountain is very nice, too, and serves both humans and dogs. There are several beautiful wooden benches throughout, many of them under the shade of the trees. While there, we saw lots of walkers, bikers, and families enjoying themselves in the park. Afterward, we stopped at the vendors and bought the most delicious lemonade with mint--yum!

About a 10 minute walk from the metro Plaza Egaña, this community sports center is the perfect spot…read morefor all ages and sports fanatics. They have both an indoor and outdoor basketball court as well as tennis courts and playgrounds for children. There are changing rooms, bathrooms and showers as well! Above all else though, this is a perfect soccer option. They have both a larger synthetic soccer field (5-6 players per side) as well as a smaller, cement field (4 players a side) and an indoor court on those rainy days. The prices range from 15 to 25 mil an hour, depending on where you are playing (the synthetic field costs 25). Everything is very well maintained, nicely lighted and sometimes, if there isn't anyone scheduled after you, the owners will let you play a little longer without charging. Besides renting by the hour, the center also hosts very inexpensive soccer championships (basically just enough to cover the cost of the field and the referee fee). Overall, a great, safe option to play pichanga with friends. Call ahead of time to reserve the soccer fields or basketball/tennis courts.
