Visitor Reviews of Ski Arpa
scottishshredder from United States writes:
Incredible place leaving the legs feeling like jelly. Riding next to the highest peak in South America - Acongagua, I was treated to riding 18000 ft vertical in 1 day, at the mere cost of $50 and dry Chilean pow - this is cat skiing at it's best. Nearby you can hit up Portillo. Los Andes is a cheap place to stay but not much night life - save it for the ride, you'll need it. Highly recommendable.
