Vega Honda is a campsite situated on the left-hand side of the Rio Olivares in the Santiago Metropolitan Region, at approximately 33°15'46. 75"S, 70°08'17. 19"W.

It sits in a small depression alongside a bend in the river and is described as a sheltered camp, making it a practical overnight stop in this remote Andean valley.

The site serves as a key waypoint on the multi-day trek to the Gran Salto del Olivares, typically reached after around 17 kilometers of hiking from the trailhead near the Subestación Olivares.

Just before arriving, trekkers must ford the Estero de los Castaños.

The terrain and daily distances involved — generally six to ten hours of walking — place this route in the challenging category, suited to physically fit hikers experienced in mountain conditions.

Access to the broader Rio Olivares area requires individual permits.
