  Soy chileno/canadiense y he esquiado durante años. He visitado este volcan durante muchos años y si es verdad como dicen varios otros que se nota el cambio de mano. Pero eso mas que nada es para los puros fines de semana, han habidos muchos dias ya durante esta temporada cuando el centro sigue cerrado durante el dia despues de un temporal. Yo trabajo de forma independiente y tengo muchos dias de semana para poder esquiar y la verdad es que el centro durante la semana funciona como funcionaba con la administracion antigua. Seria bueno si pudiera funcionar de la misma manera a pesar del dia que sea.

  Un escape en la semana. El miércoles 03 de Agosto desde Pto. Montt demoramos 01 hora 15 min. (12:00 hrs arriba). Ambas sillas operativas, pistas pisadas, nieve polvo fuera de pista, excelente vista, buen clima, sin viento hasta las 16:00 hrs que empezó a soplar (10 kn aprox.), que más se puede pedir. Felicitaciones a la nueva Administración por el esfuerzo, se ha notado el cambio de timón.

  Desde hace años visito periódicamente este centro.

  Hay días con nieve para unos fuera de pista alucinante y unas vistas de lo mejor, pero también hay días de viento y hielo muy desagradable.

  Me gustaría destacar que ayer , sábado 30 de julio, se notó un gran cambio en el tratamiento de las pistas.
  
  Para sorpresa de todos la superficie esquiable trabajada con maquinas se había extendido unas 4 veces comparado con años anteriores.

  Considerando que había mucho hielo fuera de las pistas creo que fue un acierto total, pudimos disfrutar, mucho mas que otras veces.

  Felicitaciones, se nota el cambio de mano¡¡

  Went to Volcán Osorno in summer to climb this volcano and have a look at the ski facilities; obviously not the most modern lift system but the view of both the mountain and the surrounds is beyond belief. It's a true paradise. For that alone I will come back to ski here.

  There is a fantastic view at Volcán Osorno but very bad services. When it snows a lot, many times the lifts have problems and do not work. The phones at the ski center are not answered or are out of service most of the time.
  I live near the Volcán Osorno center and would like a more professional service.

  Volcán Osorno provides the most beautiful view of the most beautiful place that I have ever been to.

  One of the most spectacular volcanoes in Chile. Driving along the valley Osorno looms high and ominous and there is no escaping it’s glare! We arrived at the base early and again we had the ski resort to ourselves. There are numerous lifts that can give access to some amazing off-piste, however we wanted to ski from the summit. The skin up took 4 hours but 300 metres from the summit the slope angle changes from 30 to 50 degrees. The last section has to be negotiated with crampons and ice axes. The ski down was spectacular and as we arrived at the bottom for some hard earned cerveza’s you could not help thinking that skiing would never be the same again. The land of volcanoes had us hooked. The thing about volcanoes is they're round and if you have them to yourself with untracked snow you could still be skiing after three months making fresh track.
