Rain in Concepción brings snow to the Cordillera de Los Andes.

There are two skiing ressorts in the BioBio Region, Nevados de Chillán, near Concepción, and Antuco, on the volcano with the same name, near Los Angeles. Nevados de Chillán counts on around half a dozen lifts, Antuco has about three to four T-bars.

It is said the Andes of the Bio Bio Region receive the best powder snow on the southern hemisphere.

To get to Nevados de Chillán skiing ressort, starting from Concepción, just take the Autopista del Itata, then pass through Chillán and head to Las Trancas, a village only five kilometers before the skiing ressort. Be sure you have chains or, at least, a four wheel drive as these five kilometers might be icy.

Skiing is expensive in Chile, but you can get it cheaper. If you get there on Fridays, you get two tickets for one at Nevados de Chillán if you dial *110*292# on your ENTEL mobile phone and show the incoming message at the entrance. Get also 10% discount on tickets from Monday through Thursday and 15% discount on ski rental, following the same method. Helicopter skiing is available on demand.

HelloChile recommends to stay overnight there. As the hotels are extremely expensive, we can organize you a nice, cosy appartment in Nevados de Chillán. Another alternative is to stay in Las Trancas.

HelloChile visits the skiing resort frequently, so just send us a mail or give us a call on (09) 84330101.

Esta vez, HelloChile hacía el nexo idiomático (inglés – español) entre una delegación del país africano Ghana y una gran empresa de la zona, durante su visita de inspección de postes de electricidad. El resultado ha sido muy favorable para la empresa chilena.

HelloChile, además de formar el puente idiomático, aprovechó la ocasión para mostrar a su ilustre visita las joyas turísticas de la zona, en especial el Salto del Laja y el sector cordillerano de Antuco – Parque Nacional Laguna del Laja, con el volcán Antuco.

This time, HelloChile built the language bridge between the inspection delegation from the African country Ghana and a big Chilean company. The goal of the visit was the quality control of chemically treated wooden poles, destinated to the electricity supply in Ghana.

HelloChile also had the opportunity to show some of the touristic beauties of the Bio Bio Region, especially the Salto del Laja and parts of the the Laguna del Laja National Park, as well as the city of Los Angeles and Concepción – Lirquén.
