Southern Ski Centers - Chile Travel

Sports and wellness in magical landscapes

If you are a winter sports enthusiast, the ski resorts of southern Chile are a must-see. There, you can practice skiing, snowboarding, and enjoy wellness services amidst native forests and the Andes. Nevados de Chillán, one of the best resorts on the continent, is home to the famous “Tres Marías”, the longest track in South America with 13 kilometers.

Corralco stands out for its modern infrastructure and slopes for all levels, at the foot of the Lonquimay Volcano. Further south, Antillanca offers different experiences. Each center invites you to slide through the pristine snow of Chile, in an environment where adventure meets the untamed beauty of the snowy volcanoes.

How to get there

How to get there by air

You should travel to the airport closest to your destination: Carriel Sur (CCP) for Nevados de Chillán (80 km); La Araucanía (ZCO) for Corralco (120 km); or Cañal Bajo (ZOS) for Antillanca (100 km). All have direct flights from Santiago. From the air terminal, you must rent a vehicle or hire a transfer.

How to get there by land

If you are coming from Santiago, take Route 5 South to reach each of the destinations. Nevados de Chillán is 407 km away (5 hours 30 minutes), Corralco is 700 km away (8 hours), and Antillanca is 930 km away (11 hours). Schedule your breaks, as Route 5 South is extensive.

Must-Know Tips

Wear thermal, waterproof clothing and several layers to protect yourself from the cold and snow. Do not forget a hat, gloves, scarf, and sunglasses, as the reflection on the snow is intense. If you practice skiing or snowboarding, wear a helmet and appropriate equipment, either your own or rented. Also, bring sunscreen, water, snacks, and check the weather before leaving.
