Chileloco is proud to announce our summer 2009 Guided Chile Snowboard Tour for skilled riders only. Visit three mountain resorts with the option of more. Guide and videographer Jeremy Dubs(Funner Films) will capture your trip in full HD-quality video. You will ride the deepest pow Chile has to offer and meet with cool local riders as well as visiting professional snowboarding teams. Ride your choice of El Colorado Ski Resort, La Parva, or Valle Nevado, learning each resort with the locals and getting your riding filmed. Lodging will be arranged based on personal preferences. Options include hostel, hotel, and locals homestay.
We have been in Chile the last 4 winters and are expecting this one to be the best. Living in the mountains, ski-in-ski out style is the best way to experience what Chile is all about. That's why you'll be staying in the mountains, away from the mess of the city and commuting hassle. You'll be able to stay on your board all day long if you like, since most of the restaurants and bars are located next to the mountainside. There are also discotheques that open at 12pm and close sometime after sunrise. The scenery is unreal, something similar to Alaska with large mountainous peaks and probably the best sunsets you will ever experience. The tours are flexible, which means that we're always ready to show you a good time, however you'd like to experience life in Chile.
