Holding — fresh snow yesterday
Today's chilly and windy conditions, with zero fresh snow, mean you'll find packed snow on trails, but keep an eye on that wind. Wednesday looks like your best bet for a few centimeters of fresh dusting with slightly clearer skies.

📖 About Lonquimay
Lonquimay is a hidden gem nestled within a volcanic landscape, offering a unique Chilean ski experience. Its slopes cater to those seeking uncrowded runs and a connection with the raw beauty of the Andes. The resort's intimate atmosphere and challenging terrain make it a haven for adventurous skiers and snowboarders.
Terrain
The terrain is characterized by open bowls, steep chutes, and intriguing off-piste opportunities. Volcanic rock formations add a distinctive element to the landscape. Tree skiing is available in some areas, offering sheltered runs during windy conditions.
Snow quality
The snow is typically a mix of Andean powder and denser, more maritime snow, influenced by Pacific weather systems. Expect good accumulations and a varied snowpack throughout the season.
Aspect
North-facing slopes tend to hold snow longer, offering extended opportunities for powder runs. South-facing aspects may experience faster melt-freeze cycles, creating variable snow conditions.
