How to make the most of it

Listing from the official Aconcagua Valley destination catalogue, with the key information to plan your visit. Practical details are verified and updated from official sources.

How to get there

  1. From Santiago: 146 km, about 2 h 30 min via Route 57 (Los Libertadores) and the international Route 60, climbing the Caracoles switchbacks to the Portillo ski resort (2,900 m).
  2. This is high-mountain terrain next to the Los Libertadores border pass. In winter: chains required, police checks and possible closures — check that the pass is open that morning.
  3. No direct public bus; go by car or with a tour/transfer (for example, the Ski Portillo shuttle).
