Puente Alto is in the America/Santiago timezone (-03/UTC-3, shifting to -04/UTC-4 during daylight saving time). Puente Alto is the largest municipality in Chile by population, a suburb spreading south from Santiago at the foot of the Andes. The Maipo River canyon begins here, and the snow-capped peaks of the Andean cordillera are visible on clear days from the city streets. About 700,000 people live in what is, in practice, an extension of the Santiago metropolitan area.

Chile runs on Chile Standard Time (CLT), UTC-4 in winter (April-September in the Southern Hemisphere). During summer daylight saving, Chile advances to UTC-3 (CLST). Puente Alto follows this schedule along with Santiago to the north.

The Southern Hemisphere calendar means that DST in Chile runs opposite to the northern pattern: clocks spring forward in October (spring) and fall back in April (autumn). This confuses northern-hemisphere software and travelers alike, but it is simply the southern summer pattern.

Maipo Valley vineyards and wine harvest

The vineyards of the Maipo Valley begin just beyond Puente Alto. The Concha y Toro winery, one of the most visited tourist sites in Chile, is within the municipality. The wine harvest in March and April is the valley’s great seasonal event, falling in late summer as the days start shortening again.

9am in Puente Alto is 1pm in London during Chilean winter.
