Situated in the middle of the coastal mountain range. A significant aspect is that it has one of the last remaining Chilean palm forests, a species which is in danger of extinction.

- My last visit to La Campana, 2006 February 14. (5 hours).
Pros
- La Campana is inhabited by species typical (flora and fauna) of our country\'s central
- southern and northern zones. The convergence of such valuable bio-diversity occasioned UNESCO to declare the Park a World Biosphere Reservation in 1985. Near Santi
Cons
- I think it's a little bit untidy.
