Cerro Catedral
Mejor época para visitar
Winter (June to September) offers prime skiing conditions with reliable snow cover. For hiking and mountain biking, visit from November to March when the trails are clear and wildflowers bloom across the alpine meadows.
Consejos para el presupuesto
A day lift pass costs around $70 USD in high season, with significant discounts for multi-day passes purchased online in advance. Rent gear in Bariloche town rather than at the base to save up to 30%, and bring your own lunch since mountain food is priced at a premium.

Acerca de
Datos rápidos: South America's largest ski center stretches across 2650 acres with 120 kilometers of groomed runs. A network of 35 lifts carries skiers to a summit elevation of 2388 meters overlooking the deep blue expanse of Nahuel Huapi Lake.
Destacados: The mountain's distinctive granite spires change color throughout the day, glowing pink at sunset against the darkening Patagonian sky. On clear winter mornings, the summit offers views across the Andes into Chile, with the cone of Volcán Lanín visible on the southern horizon.
Consejos de expertos
- Skip the crowded base area on powder days and take the Telecabina Amancay gondola straight to the intermediate terrain on Punta Nevada.
- The Refugio Lynch trail on the backside offers untouched powder stashes that remain fresh days after a storm, accessible only with a mountain guide.
- Rent a car rather than relying on the shuttle bus, the road up from Bariloche has a string of roadside bakeries selling medialunas for 75 cents.
- Midweek visits from Tuesday to Thursday mean lift lines shrink to under 5 minutes even during peak July school holidays.
