En route to our visit of Patagonia, we had an overnight layover in Santiago, where our son-in-law's brother works at the U.S. Embassy.

After getting lunch and touring the downtown area, including the Costanera Tower--the tallest building in South America, we met up with their family and went on a sunset hike up the nearby trail. It reminded me a bit of a South Mountain or Piestewa sunset hike, with views of the city below. It was a solid gain--nearly 1000 in 1.5 miles.

The trail leads to a nice viewpoint for watching the sunset. It continues on to the peak itself, but that was more challenge than we had time for.

The sunset delivered nice views, and this was a lovely way to get some dirt under our feet in the big city.
