Ski centers in Argentina

In the following text we will talk about three of the most important ski centers in Argentina. The three of us have actually visited them and have skied there, so we are going to give our personal opinion about the center each has visited, and go over topics like talk about sloaps, services, extra activities, and many other things that are important when deciding were to go skiing. You can use this information and personal opinions at the moment of deciding which center would you like to visit.

Chapelco is a ski and snowboard center located in San Martin de los Andes. It has 28 sloaps, services such as Ski & Snowboard. This center has very good service of attention, as it has several hostels with equipment needed for a good stay, and hotels are cheap. You can also rent equipment for people with disabilities. Landscapes are unforgetable, the mountains have some beauty that can’t be found regulary. The low temperatures caused by the altitude of the mountain generates a longer ski season than in other ski centers. It has one of the most extreme sloaps in Argentina, but the disadvantage is that most of them are off-road, and you can’t get there by lift, so you have to do it by feet or expensive helicopters. But when you ski through them you will understand that all the uphill walk was not in vane.

Some people may think that Las Leñas is a boring center because of its small size, but I think this is a place that can be visited exclusively for skiing. Not many people can stand spending more than three days skiing, but if you are a passionate lover of this sport I think this would the perfect place for you to go. Las Leñas is in my opinion, is the most prepared ski center in Argentina, because of the excellent accommodation that is offered, because of the quality of the ski equipments that can be rented, the high quality snow that can be produced artificially, and mostly because of the maintenance of the sloaps. Also, it is one of the few ski centers that has hotels with direct sloaps acces.

Bariloche is the biggest ski center of Argentina and also Latin America, it features 70 sloaps, and an excellent technology in lifting means. On the down side it may  be dangerous for starters because of it has  many sloaps surrounded by woods. If you want to go out to dance or to eat, you have got countless options for restaurants or discos. During daytime , skiing is not the only activity that can be enjoyed: there are other exciting activities for people who got tired of skiing, like trekking, mountain bike and rides in sledges or snowmoviles. So in my opinion, this place is excellent for visiting it with friends and family. And the thing that makes it more most intresting and tempting it that is much cheaper than other centers is Argentina.
