Rio Palena Lodge

HELI-SKIING

CHILEAN PATAGONIA | 2025

There’s skiing. Then there’s heli-skiing in Chilean Patagonia.

Nestled in a pristine Southern Andean region in the Rio Palena valley, our lodge is your jumping-off point to some of the most remote skiing terrain on the planet. With a personal team of expert guides, you’ll have your pick of first descents in Patagonia. Open bowls, steep couloirs, and glacial terrain are all yours for the taking. Make turns around the towering granite spires that this region of Chile is famous for. It’s all untouched, unexplored, and unbelievable.

HIGHLIGHTS

DETAILS

Our Rio Palena Lodge is every bit as awe-inspiring as the skiing. Blending the Patagonian wilderness with touches of understated elegance, the lodge’s seven en suite bedrooms offer not only unmatched skiing access, but also the comforts of home. The unique location of the lodge gives you quick heli access to high altitude skiing, but also allows guests to enjoy summer-like activities at lower altitudes. Wind down and relax in our forest spa with wood-fired hot tubs and sauna. Our local chefs will treat you to an authentic asado experience along the riverside.
