Villarrica-Pucon is about 800 kilometers south of Santiago, accessible by a well maintained paved road and a dirt access road. The area is on an active volcano.
Weather here is a problem.
Chances are some type of precipitation falls on any given winter day. But when it is sunny, it is gorgeous. The top lift served elevation is 2080 meters. The base elevation is 1200 meters. Trails serve all ability levels, and skiers and snowboarders may choose from many off-piste runs.
