The Andes Mountains & Wine Tour

The Andes Mountains & Wine Tour

During the snow season, June to the 4th of October, its amazing how you will be able to view the white skirts up to the Andes, where you will be able to picture the beauty of the silence and of course if you are a ski lover, this is the place to practice it, and snowboard, at the International Ski resort.

We will have a mini picnic with Cheese and wine and pisco sour during a stop, before reaching the very to called Valle Nevado. On the way we will see the Farellones ski center and Colorado. During summer time, we will be able to appreciate its peculiar flora, and maybe on september view a Condor or two if we are lucky, taking pictures of the wide variety of cactus and shrubs. When the altitude exceeds 2,000 meters, the mountain shows in its slopes a range of colours caused by the minerals of the soil. The highest we will feel is 3.025 mts high. Free time to walk, take pictures and enjoy a nice snack up at the Ski Center if included on your booking.
