Helicopter Ride to Valle Nevado
Description
We'll meet at 8:40 am at your chosen meeting point. From here, we'll board the helicopter that will take us to Valle Nevado. We'll enjoy birdseye views of the village of Farellones, the ski resorts of La Parva, and the Colorado ski center.
We'll spend around 20 minutes soaring over the mountains before landing at the heliport. Then we'll head to Valle Nevado ski resort and the Cerro El Plomo mountain where you'll have about 8 hours of free time to go skiing and snowboarding. Did you know that Valle Nevado has one of the largest skiing areas in South America?
You'll also get the chance to ride the chairlift. As you glide over the slopes of Cerro El Plomo you'll enjoy incredible views of the area.
Afterwards, we'll hop into the helicopter again to make our way back to Santiago de Chile. We'll arrive at 5:20 pm and take you back to the starting point to end the trip.
