Founded in 1692, Talca is historically known as the place where the Chilean Declaration of Independence was signed in 1818. In the present, its beautiful mountainous Andean landscape makes Talca one of Chile’s premiere destinations for tourists.
Your Talca tour guide will showcase to you the lovely Villa Alegre and Villa Cultural Huilquilemu, two colonial towns that have maintained their charm and tradition. Located at the foot of the Andes Mountains, Lake Colbun is a necessary trip for any nature enthusiast. Spectacular views of mountains and the lake are augmented by a multitude of outdoor activities such as camping, swimming, boating, fishing.  Horseback riding is a great way to explore the Chilean countryside with the foothills of the Andes and the dams providing excellent photo ops. If you’d rather stay indoors, enjoy the entertainment at the Regional Theatre, the art exhibits at the O’Higgins Museum, or an afternoon of wine tasting at Casa Donosa Winery. After all, Talca is referred to as “Chilean Wine Country” for its phenomenal wineries and delicious upscale food
