👨👩👧👦 Argentina
Best family ski resorts in Argentina
A great family resort is more than a kids' club: it wants gentle, wide runs, genuine beginner terrain, and a village that is safe to walk around, ideally car-free or ski-in/ski-out. These 3 resorts in Argentina score highest on exactly that, each with slope-side hotels you can compare in one click.
The top family pick in this list is Chapelco, in Andes: gentle terrain, easy lift-served beginner zones and a base that keeps small skiers close to the door.

Chapelco
48% easy pistesReal beginner runsFamily favourite
Rising above the lakeside town of San Martin de los Andes, Chapelco is one of Patagonia's most scenic and welcoming ski areas. Its runs thread through native lenga forest before opening onto wide upper slopes, with sweeping views of the snow-capped Lanin volcano and the deep blue of Lago Lacar.

Cerro Bayo
40% easy pistesReal beginner runsFamily favourite
Cerro Bayo rises just above the lakeside town of Villa La Angostura, offering some of the most beautiful views in Patagonia across the vast waters of Lago Nahuel Huapi. It is a small, relaxed resort where the slopes stay refreshingly uncrowded and the scenery does as much work as the skiing.

La Hoya

Tucked into the Patagonian Andes above Esquel, La Hoya faces south and holds cold, dry powder long after a storm. Uncrowded, great value and blessed with a long season, it is a quiet favourite for snow hunters.
