A multi-adventure trip

While skiing or snowboarding in Patagonia is an unforgettable experience, the range of other activities to do makes this a truly diverse adventure. If you have energy to spare, conditions for whitewater rafting, kayaking, hiking and mountain biking are spectacular, but if you prefer something a little more chilled out, angling, birdwatching or boat trips are equally good ways to appreciate the beauty of Patagonia.

Pioneering skiing

In our experience, the easiest places to get to are never the best and the journey is worth the effort. This is one of the most remote places to ski on earth - there are mountains out here that have probably never been stood on, let alone skied on.

Stay on land or on sea

Choose between a riverside retreat offering complete seclusion or a yacht with helipad to explore the Patagonian fjords. Both are equipped with the kit you need to explore in myriad ways.
