Conditions of this activity
Ski and snowboard

- Lessons are given by the resort's ski school, a third party with its own rules; lift ticket, equipment and boots are arranged with the resort.
- Helmet recommended and mandatory for minors; instructors and slope rules are respected.
- The mountain road may be closed by the authorities or require chains; if the day does not happen, our resolution policy applies.
Mountain, altitude and hot springs
- You climb to 2,500–2,900 m: headache, nausea or shortness of breath are possible; any heart or respiratory condition must be reported.
- Short walks on uneven ground, intense sun and cold; mountain roads may be closed by the authorities.

What you'll live
You climb the mythical 40 hairpin bends up to Farellones (2,430 m), walk the mountain village and visit two of the three ski resorts — El Colorado, La Parva and Valle Nevado — whichever you choose, with 360° Andes viewpoints at each. You pick the two when you book, or on the day with your driver-guide, depending on how the mountain looks: which one has the clearer view, which one is quieter, where it is worth stopping at that hour. All three are minutes apart. No skiing required, and no need to know how: this is how you see the high Andes without giving up the whole day. Lift tickets and ski passes are not included — this is a scenic tour, not a ski day.
