Visitor Reviews of El Colorado


Walker Rowe from Chile writes:

Hi,

I am a Gringo living in Santiago. El Colorado is the 2nd closest ski resort to Santiago. It's really two resorts with a smaller resort called Farellones just below it. Chilean people do not ski much (they say it is too expensive) so some go to Farellones just to look at the snow and walk around in it since it does not snow in the city. El Colorado is about a 1 hour ride by bus or other vehicle from Santiago. The ride is straight up. You go from about 1,000 meters in the city to 2,400 meters at the ski resort. Rentals of equipment is about $36 USD per day and the lift ticket is $66. This year we are having drought but just last night it snowed heavily so I am going back for the 2nd time this year. For those of you who live in the crowded Northeast of the USA you will like it here. It is not crowded at all and the slopes cover two mountain sides. At higher elevation and maybe 45 minutes further away is Valle Nevado. Mainly foreigners go there as it costs more and it has a certain panache that is intimidating to those who are not well heeled with cash. Because Nevado is at a higher elevation at times that road can be closed due to the heavy snow. The bus drivers here tell me that the road to El Colorado rarely closes due to heavy snow as the government keeps it plowed and they use chains. As I write this El Colorado is open but soccer fans cannot pass over to Argentine to see the matches there this weekend because the pass over the Andes is closed. If you want to know more about Chile look at my blog gringolandiasantiago.com. saludos,
