Trabajo en La Higuera por una Ruta Patrimonial Costera Birregional en el norte de Chile
February 03, 2026

This record from La Higuera, Coquimbo, Chile, highlights the development of the La Higuera-Freirina Birregional Coastal Heritage Route. Set to launch in 2026, this initiative by Chile's Ministry of National Assets aims to provide public access to areas of high social, natural, cultural, and tourist value. It will offer accessible routes for vehicles, walking, cycling, and horseback riding, with local and institutional actors discussing its benefits.

Key support for this route comes from the GEF Marine Coastal Governance Project, implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and executed by Chile's Ministry of Environment, Undersecretariat of Fisheries and Aquaculture, and National Fisheries and Aquaculture Service.
