Ski Argentina — Private Ski Travel to Bariloche & Las Leñas
World-class skiing in the Southern Hemisphere — with none of the European crowds
Introduction
Argentina's ski season runs from late June to mid-October — which means while the European resorts are empty and dusty, the Andes are in full winter. Cerro Catedral at Bariloche is the largest ski resort in South America, with 119 runs across 1,200 hectares and a setting overlooking Nahuel Huapi Lake that is genuinely unmatched.
For the best ski Argentina has to offer in terms of raw terrain, Las Leñas near Mendoza is the answer — remote, uncrowded, with some of the deepest and longest off-piste runs in the world. When comparing ski Argentina vs Chile, both countries offer exceptional skiing: Argentina wins on value, Las Leñas terrain, and the combination of skiing with wine country; Chile wins on resort infrastructure. The best time to ski Argentina is July and August for reliable snow depth, with September offering longer days and spring skiing conditions.
We arrange ski-in ski-out lodges at Cerro Catedral, private instruction, lift pass coordination, and heli-ski access for qualified skiers at Las Leñas. Ski Argentina journeys through Bespoke Argentina include accommodation, transfers, guiding, and everything else — you just bring your skis.

Three feet of fresh powder and not another set of tracks as far as we could see. Las Leñas in a storm is one of the world's great skiing secrets.
