Skiing in South America

Skiing in South America Chase Endless Winter in the Andes

Why Ski South America?

In the Northern Hemisphere, the summer months might seem like an unending wait for skiers and snowboarders since the snow melts, the lifts stop spinning, and the mountains are silent. However, south of the equator winter is only beginning. The Andes Mountains are covered in new snow from July to October, providing top-notch terrain, a lively culture, and the opportunity to prolong your ski season.

PowderQuest can help with that. With more than 20 years of expertise, we have organized incredible ski and snowboarding experiences all across South America, ranging from backcountry expeditions in unexplored areas to lift-served resort vacations.

South America Ski Touring – Backcountry Adventures

For those seeking untouched powder and big-mountain adventure, our South America backcountry trips deliver the ultimate experience. Options include:

  • Tours from one place to another As you journey far into the Andes and stay in quaint mountain retreats, earn your turns.

  • Lift-Assisted Backcountry Skiing: Combine off-piste exploring with ski lifts to maximize vertical.

These tours, which are intended for intermediate to expert skiers and splitboarders, emphasize independence, difficulty, and the excitement of riding lines that few people have experienced.

All-Mountain Ski Resort Trips in South America

For skiers and snowboarders who want the ease of lifts combined with the flexibility to explore both on- and off-piste terrain, our all-mountain ski resort holidays in South America are ideal. You'll get access to some of the best ski resorts on the continent, find secret snow stashes that only locals know about, and enjoy a well-rounded selection of groomers, powder routes, and backcountry choices. These guided trips, which are intended for riders who are upper-intermediate to advanced, combine comfort and excitement to make the most of your stay in the Andes.

Conclusion

More than merely prolonging your season, South American skiing allows you to experience the stunning Andes and chase winter over the equator. PowderQuest's decades of experience guarantee a smooth, remarkable trip, whether you opt for a guided resort trip or a hut-to-hut backcountry excursion.

Don't wait for winter to return this year. Go south and see why the Andes are one of the best places to go skiing in the world.
