Where to Ski in Mendoza<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Valle de Las Le\u00f1as ski resort<\/span><\/strong><\/a> is the place thousands of people choose every year to enjoy the snow in Mendoza<\/strong>. It’s located about 80 km from Malarg\u00fce, the nearest city to the resort. From the city of Mendoza, it’s 342 km south via National Route 40<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Previously, the Vallecitos and Penitentes ski resorts were also in operation, very close to the capital city. However, today they have been converted into snow recreation areas without ski or snowboard activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

And as you glide down the slopes, you’re surrounded by mountains that create an unforgettable scene.<\/span><\/p>\n

It has hotels at the foot of the slopes, 14 ski lifts<\/strong>, restaurants<\/strong>, and all the services needed to fully enjoy skiing<\/strong> and snowboarding<\/strong>. Plus, there are bars and nightlife options for those who want to combine sports with entertainment.<\/span><\/p>\n
