Skiing between glaciers or drinking a couple of mates sitting by the window of the hut staring at the hiding behind Monte Tronador. Three days getting to know its huts, crossing its glaciers and skiing some of its best routes. If you like this activity, you can’t miss it. Pictures speak for themselves, don’t they?
Food in the mountains
We recommend that you bring your snacks of choice for those long hours in the mountains. Same goes for your favorite beverages. Eating well is key for keeping your strength up out in the hills. And to cope with the loss of appetite, the best you can have is a wide variety of food, from sweet to sour and salty. Carrying at least 2 liters if water is essential.
Accommodation during the trip
Both nights will be spent at Meiling Hut. Depending on the time of the year services availability may vary. We only need our sleeping bags.
Travel and rescue insurance
An insurance plan is mandatory to protect yourself from the unexpected. Check with your insurance company on the details about coverage and policies. Feel free to contact us for details or in doubt.
