About Valle Nevado

Valle Nevado is Chile's largest and most internationally oriented ski resort, a purpose-built complex at 3,025m in the Andes just 60km from Santiago — the closest major ski area to a capital city of its altitude and scale anywhere in the world. Its 100km of piste across steep Andean ridgelines are complemented by vast off-piste terrain that has established Valle Nevado's reputation among the global freeride community as South America's most compelling big-mountain destination; the resort regularly features in the itineraries of US and European expert skiers chasing the Andean powder season during the Northern Hemisphere summer. The resort sits within the Tres Valles ski circuit alongside El Colorado and La Parva, allowing a combined ticket across all three areas to significantly extend the available terrain. Santiago's international connectivity — with direct flights from multiple US gateways — and the 90-minute transfer time make Valle Nevado one of the most logistically straightforward southern hemisphere ski trips available to US travelers.
