Andes Heliskiing

Home to the world’s largest volcanoes, the Andes offer the most vertical relief for heli-skiing anywhere in the world and a chance to ski in North American summer. While resort skiers in Argentina and Chile only see the far Western flanks of the Andes, South America heli-skiers can dive deep into the second largest mountain range in the world.

Our guides’s local knowledge of the area and extensive working experience within the ski industry in South America means travelers will have insider access to about 5 million acres of skiing in the Andes. Heli-skiing in the Andes means alpine skiing with features like bowls, couloirs and big mountain faces. Runs average 5,000 vertical feet (1,500m) and often extend to 9,000 feet (2,750m). A reliable snowpack makes avalanche mitigation relatively easy, which translates to more steep skiing opportunities. With many landing zones higher than the summits of South American ski resorts, travellers will be skiing thigh-deep blower powder when resort skiers find dust of crust.

All our heli guides have at least a decade of experience heli-ski guiding. Safety is our biggest priority, but travelers are ensured to have the most exciting snow adventure of their lives. Our team of professional guides is comprised of passionate, colorful, creative leaders who are in love with skiing and the mountains.
