Beginner Ski Day Valle Nevado

Yes. There will be a stop along the way at a specialized shop where you can rent snow gear. The complete kit (jacket, pants, boots, and gloves) costs approximately CLP $45,000 per person. Rental is optional and can be paid directly at the shop, by credit or debit card, or in cash (Chilean pesos, dollars, and reais).

The ski resorts are located at around 3,000 meters (9,800 feet) above sea level. At that altitude, some people may experience dizziness, fatigue, or headaches. To avoid these discomforts, we recommend:

• Staying well hydrated and avoiding alcohol or heavy meals before the tour.
• Not smoking before ascending.
• Getting a good night’s sleep the night before.
• Avoiding reading or using your phone during the drive, as the road has many curves.

Yes, lessons are organized by age and skill level. During the lessons, children and adults learn in separate groups, allowing each person to receive instruction tailored to their pace and needs. All instructors are certified and highly trained to work at ski resorts, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for people of all ages.

The tour includes the necessary equipment for your chosen activity, whether skiing or snowboarding. This means that if you choose the ski option, you'll receive skis, boots, and poles; and if you choose a snowboard, you'll receive a board and boots.

A helmet is not included in either option, but you can rent one directly at the ski resort. Although not mandatory, we recommend using it as an additional safety measure, especially if this is your first time practicing snow sports.
