Skiing at La Parva Chile in the Andes is definitely inimitable and worthy of bragging rights. The resort of La Parva is one of the Tres Valles (Three Valleys) ski areas, along with El Colorado and Valle Nevado. Relative to these resorts, La Parva ski resort gets few international visitors and it’s more like an exclusive private ski club for Santiago’s wealthy families.
The world’s longest mountain range (on land), The Andes runs along the west coast of South America for approximately 7000 km/4,300 mi, with an average height of 4000 m. The Andes mountains provide a stunning backdrop to Santiago and are very popular with tourists seeking active day trips outside of the city. Trekking, rafting, horse-riding and skiing are the most popular activites.
Yerba Loca Valley, a mountain sanctuary where the outdoors and the silence open their doors, inviting you to relax, exercise and connect with the natural environment of the Andes.
