Join Saveur the Journey for a Strong Intermediate/Advanced level Southern Hemisphere Skiing and Boarding trip to the Mendoza Province of Argentina in August 2025. Escape the hot summer stateside and travel across the equator to chase an endless winter with this small-group South American ski trip to the high-altitude resort of Las Leñas in the Andes. With a base at 7,350 ft (2240m) and the lifts topping out at 11,250ft (3430m), Las Leñas provides almost 4ooo ft of vertical and is a massive resort, with more total skiable terrain than Whistler, Canada. Las Leñas has a good mix of difficulty levels, from great intermediate runs with superb views, all the way to extreme steeps, bowls, and couloirs. Due to its high altitude, the quality of the powder up high is considered some of the best in South America. The resort is geographically remote (about four-and-half hours drive from Mendoza city) so it takes some work to get there, but the payoff is a stunning location with potentially limited competition for the more advanced powder lines.
A local Argentinian guide and ski instructor will get you to the front of the lift lines and show you the best powder stashes and where to experience superb Argentinian wines, pampas beef, chocolate, and culture.
