Ski Portillo Resort Packages

Welcome to the Andes Mountains of Argentina, where the Chile ski trip of a lifetime awaits! Let Endless Turns handle all the details of your all-inclusive ski and snowboarding package to the Ski Portillo Resort.

Ski Portillo, South America’s first and most iconic ski resort, offers an all-inclusive, club-like experience for a limited number of guests, ensuring uncrowded slopes and a strong sense of community. Located high in the majestic Chilean Andes with stunning views of the emerald Laguna del Inca, the resort is renowned for its personalized service and challenging terrain.

The resort sits high above the fertile grape growing valleys, which produce some of the best wines in the world.

SKI SEASON

The season in Portillo is from late June through early October (weather dependent). Since Portillo is located high in the Andes and in a box like canyon, storms stay for days, delivering several feet each storm. Portillo can have great snow through October in their best seasons. The snow here is comparable to snow in Utah in the States, or the high resorts throughout the Alps.

THE MOUNTAIN

The mountain at Ski Portillo features diverse terrain suitable for a range of abilities, though it particularly caters to intermediate, advanced, and expert skiers. The resort sits entirely above the tree line, with elevations ranging from 2,580 m to 3,310 m (8,460 ft to 10,860 ft), offering 35 runs and ample off-piste opportunities. A key feature is the unique, high-speed “Va et Vient” (slingshot) surface lifts, designed specifically for avalanche-prone expert chutes like Roca Jack and Condor. The resort is known for consistent snow conditions, with a high percentage of sunny days, and it serves as a summer training ground for international Olympic teams.  Feeling like an adventure, then try Portillo’s heli-skiing operation and be whisked off to the massive terrain near the famous Aconcagua Mountain.

ACCOMMODATION & CUISINE

There are three hotels in Portillo, all of which offer incredible views of the picturesque Inca Lake. Portillo is well known for its steep chutes and vast bowl skiing, but there is great terrain for all ability levels.

Stays are typically booked as all-inclusive week-long packages (Saturday to Saturday) or mini-weeks, which include lift tickets and four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner. Hotel and Octagon guests dine in the formal, main dining room with attentive waiter service, while Inca Lodge guests use the cafeteria.

Nightlife and social activities are contained within the hotel complex, fostering a friendly, communal atmosphere often likened to a “cruise ship” experience.
