During the last years, we did a couple of quite exotic skiing trips.

The first of those trips took us to the Argentinian Andes. 3 weeks for Buenos Aires, Bariloche (Cerro Catedral), Chapelco and Cerro Castor in Tierra del Fuego. Altogether we had a dozen skiing days - the rest was travelling and enjoying the Argentinian way of life. Which is especially eating great steaks, drinking good red wine and enjoying perfect night life.

We went end of August/beginning of September - and the means Easter conditions. So a little advice: plan with enough flexibility to find the best snow. On the other hand, in order to be sure to manage 3 ski resorts in three different areas in three weeks, we did some planning ahead. Especially the flight form Buenos Aires to Tierra del Fuego/Ushuahia can be pretty crowded. But before going into details on the three resorts - here is our trip-schedule:

Couple of days enjyoing Buenos Aires. After that we took a flight to Bariloche. Form the airport you can easily take buses up to the skiing resort (if you stay up there, which we did).

From Cerro Catedral, we took a private transportation (that is Argentinian terms for driver with private car, but organized by hotel…) to San Martin de los Andes. San Martin is the base station for Chapelco. It took us roughly 4 hours driving, as the direct route is blocked in winter.

Because there was no direct flight connection possibility from San Martin to Ushuahia, we had to fly back to Buenos Aires and took the earliest flight the next morning to Ushuahia. The flight is really great - perfect views especially on Tierry del Fuego. We even saw the skiing resort before landing. There a dozens of hotels and opportunities to stay in Ushuahia, but only a couple of cabanas right next to the resort. So better organize transporation right away.

The next weeks, we will block on the skiing resorts - to give you some impressions and share some better runs and freesking opportunities.

Stay tuned!
