CENTRAL ANDES - CHILE
ABOUT
Farellones is a fully operational mountain village and a small ski area that is part of the Tres Valles (Three Valleys). Villa Farellones was established in 1941, and enables easy access to the nearby ski resorts of El Colorado, La Parva and Valle Nevado. Thus, it is the place to stay if you want to ski at more than one of the Tres Valles ski resorts. It’s in a handy location and affords flexibility to access all the ski resorts via road.
The village is delightfully anti-resort and you can experience some of the “real Chile” here. The Farellones ski area is only small and is considered by many to be part of El Colorado rather than a stand-alone ski resort, because both areas are accessed off one lift ticket. The Farellones ski resort itself has a miniscule vertical drop of 190 meters, and a handful of surface lifts, a couple of beginner runs that drop down from El Colorado, and a novice slope adjacent to a tubing area.
The Chilean Altiplano is part of a high plateau shared by Chile, Argentina, Bolivia and Peru.
