Full description
Discover the majestic Cerro Catedral, South America's premier ski resort, on a guided tour with panoramic transfers from Bariloche.
Departing from your hotel, we will make our way to the imposing Cerro Catedral, the first ski resort in South America and currently one of the most prestigious in the world. Its name comes from the unique shape of its peaks, which resemble the towers of a medieval Gothic temple. This majestic location boasts 1,200 hectares of skiable slopes and 120 kilometers of trails, offering some of the most dazzling panoramic views of the Andean lake region.
The ski center is open year-round. In winter, it is the perfect setting for skiing, snowboarding, sledding, and enjoying the snow; in summer, it transforms into a paradise for trekking, mountain biking, and marveling at the landscapes. To reach the summit, visitors have the option of taking the "Cable Carril" (ascent ticket not included), a cable car system with cabins holding more than ten people that travels 3,200 meters up the mountain. This ride ascends from the base at 1,050 meters above sea level to 1,800 meters at the summit, where you can enjoy an exceptional viewpoint and visit the Punta Nevada and El Cabo cafeterias.
The tour, available in both shared (with a bilingual guide) and private (with a monolingual guide) options, includes transportation with passenger insurance and pickup from downtown hotels and those located along Bustillo Avenue up to kilometer 8. After a day of pleasure and fun on the mountain, we will head back to the city of Bariloche.
