Patagonian ski season extensions

Overview

Ski resorts in the Argentine Patagonia are extending their winter seasons due to significant snow accumulation.

At Cerro Bayo in Villa La Angostura, heavy snowfall has resulted in nearly 95 centimeters of snow at the summit, allowing services to continue through the final weeks of September. Nearby, Cerro Perito Moreno reports that conditions may allow the season to last until October 12, weather permitting. To promote spring tourism, Laderas Cerro Perito Moreno is offering discounts to residents of the Comarca Andina and the provinces of Río Negro, Chubut, and Neuquén.

In another region, the Batea Mahuida snow park has also announced an extension through at least the end of September. The park reports over one meter of compacted snow at its base and nearly two meters at the summit. This extension aims to support tourism in Villa Pehuenia and Moquehue. Batea Mahuida is offering discounted rates for residents of Villa Pehuenia-Moquehue, Lonco Luan, Aluminé, and Zapala.
