7 Its cities are formed by the remains of its colonial past and native culture (Mapuche, Rapa Nui, amongst others ). Chile possesses contrasting landscapes, such as Desert of Atacama in the north of the country and Patagonia in south.

8 Thanks to its stable political situation, Chile is known to be the safest country in South America. It also boasts high quality health services, many of them being the best ones of South America. For all these reasons, we believe that Chile is the perfect place for an event such as FIM ISDE.

9 In 2007, FIM ISDE arrived in Chile for the first time. La Serena was chosen as the host city for the previous edition, which was deemed a great and total success. 522 riders competed against each others. A massive audience of more than 50,000 people supported their favorite competitors over the 6 days.
