The bicentennial tourist trail is a project designed by two non-profit institutions, the Valparaiso Foundation and the Euro Chile Foundation, with a matching grant from the Chilean Business Development Corporation (COFRO) and strategic coordination from the Chilean Tourist Bureau (SERNATUR) and Valparaiso City Hall. The plan includes the gradual implementation of a 30 kilometer (18 mile) trail, including 15 thematic stages. Each stage will take approximately 90 minutes to 3 hours to walk.
