Skiing & Riding Experience

Our 6-day Skiing&Riding experience is unique and most authentic:
This tour is special for you, if you love skiing in untouched snow-powder and you want to do something different – far from any other skiing experience. We have just the thing for you!

We only offer this tour once a year!!!

We ride on horseback up to the Andes and discover this breath-taking landscape. Mulas are carrying our gear, food and other essentials. Once we have reached the high pasture with our horses, we will have untouched snow all around us with the most unbelievable views of the Andes Mountain range.

The mountains here in this Melado valley, where we will be skiing are fine to go backcountry skiing with your own equipment. Please be aware that these skiing tours are not guided, so you need to be an experienced backcountry-skier and it’s on your own responsibility.

During the day we will have a nice break and warm meal which will be prepared together and in the evenings we have a warm campfire as we sleep in a small open cave or in tents.

Towards the end of the trip there is some time to have a nice bath or to relax in natural hot springs.

This is a very unique are rare experience in some of the most beautiful mountains of the world.
