Explore the Andes on a backcountry ski experience across untouched snow. No prior experience needed, with expert guides and small groups ensuring a safe and personalized adventure.

Snow Experience: Backcountry Skiing in the Andes

You will experience snow in a completely different way, exploring the Andes on touring skis through untouched terrain. No previous experience is required—before starting, you will take part in an introductory workshop to learn basic techniques and essential safety concepts to move confidently in the mountains.

Throughout the day, you will explore unique landscapes, combining ascents and descents adapted to the group’s level and the day’s conditions. With small groups and expert guides, this is a safe and personalized experience, ideal for those seeking a deeper connection with the mountains.

At SAK Wine & Travel, we promote responsible tourism by caring for the natural mountain environment and encouraging the conscious use of its resources.

What do you need for this tour?

Essential items

We suggest you to bring these items for personal use to make your excursion perfect:

Small backpack.
Additional mineral water and personal thermos (1L).
Personal care items (lip balm with sunscreen, SPF 50 sunscreen, antibacterial gel/wipes, insect repellent).
Goggles or sunglasses.
Gloves and buff.
Special clothing: comfortable layered warm clothing (thermal base layer, fleece, insulated jacket and waterproof jacket), waterproof pants, ski socks (2 pairs), beanie or sun hat.
Complete change of clothes.

Safety tips: Inform the guide or driver about any illness, allergy or physical restriction. Remember to bring your medication and administration instructions.

Note: The best clothing for mountain activities is wool or synthetic materials in layers, as they dry quickly and keep warmth better. We suggest a base layer, then an intermediate layer, such as a light fleece coat or similar, and then a windproof and waterproof layer.
