Our History
Cascada de las Ánimas was founded in 1980 by the marriage of Blanca Eugenia Moreno Ramírez and Eduardo Astorga Barriga, who involved in all its formation their 10 children; Yuyin, Poncho, Yuyo, Tati, Soco, Gordita, Nani, Paulito, Carola and Ale, who helped to develop the center and manage until today this beautiful tourist complex.
38 years ago, Cascada de las Animas was just a camping and picnic area; Yuyo decided to build a kiosk with a terrace where empanadas, drinks and beers were sold; this kiosk was run and maintained by Gordita, always with the support of the other sisters. It was very hard work, for example, to keep the beers cold, Nani and Gordita had to carry buckets of water up from the river.
10 years later Carola and Nani were enthusiastic about fixing the environment, Soquito began to elaborate the Zapallo bread... The menu grew, offering: casserole, steak, rabbit and steaks. The restaurant La Tribu began to have a unique magic and mysticism, which called customers to return. 5 years later Carolita took the reins of the restaurant, she started to travel and came back full of ideas to put in the menu, such as Cabrito, Thai stir-fry, oregano bread and more; Carola worked as a waitress, chef, cashier, she was in charge of the cleaning and she was also a barwoman; then she got more help, Carmencha, her cousin and friend, helped her in this heavy task, for more than 15 years.
It is said that Eduardo Astorga, "El Abuelo", did not help much with the business, he always ended up inviting the clients that came to the restaurant to have lunch at his house; and Grandma Blanca, got angry, since in "La casa grande", they usually had lunches for more than 20 people, well where there is room for 20 there is room for 25", said Grandpa.
Years later Yuyo continued innovating, he built a bar and a space for dancing. The parties in the bar la Tribu began to become famous, Inés began to take charge of the bar and the parties, which are still in the memory of many people... At that time the macarena was danced, it was the hit of the moment, there are some who remember that to close the bar a bell was rung, which in many opportunities was stolen so that the party continued. The restaurant and Bar la Tribu began to become more and more known, new services and dining rooms were created... little by little, and with the work and effort of many people, it has become what you see today.
We hope you enjoy your stay in this unique place, immersed in the mountains and on the banks of the Maipo River.
