Andes, Chile 🇨🇱
La Parva is Santiago's weekend mountain: closest of the Tres Valles trio, just 90 minutes up the Camino del Cajón, with chalets clinging to a sun-drenched ridge between 2,662 and 3,630 metres. Long the favourite of Santiago families, it pairs gentle groomers with surprisingly serious alpine terrain above.
Generally yes. From 2662 m at the base to 3630 m up top, the profile holds snow well across a normal winter (score 80/100).
Ski-in/ski-out depends on the address here: some hotels are on the snow, others need a short walk or shuttle. Pick a slopeside address if skiing from the door matters to you.
It is a compact area, 28 km of piste on 16 lifts, best for a short break or a focused trip rather than a full week. The piste mix leans gentle (7 green, 12 blue, 8 red, 3 black), so beginners and early intermediates are well served.
La Parva stands out for snow-sure high-altitude slopes and a family-friendly setup.
In the Southern Hemisphere the season runs roughly Jun 21 to Oct 5 (the local winter), with July and August the most reliable.
