Skiing in Argentina has a thrilling appeal to it, and the
eastern slopes of the Andes especially are particularly popular
with those seeking exhilarating skiing. Ski season in Argentina
runs from June to September, with July and August bringing the
largest crowds to the resorts with the promise of fresh snowfalls.
Snow conditions vary from year to year, but there is usually
excellent powder snow.
Most prestigious of the resorts for downhill skiing is Las
Leñas, which once hosted the World Cup, while Los Penitentes near
Mendoza boasts some of the best compact powder snow. The oldest
resort, Bariloche, offers good après ski and beautiful views of the
Nahuel Huapi region, while Chapelco is a snowboarders paradise.
Enjoy the breathtaking views from Mount Castor out across the South
Atlantic near Ushuaia, which offers fantastic cross-country
skiing.
