Corralco, Chile Ski Adventure
Join us for a summer skiing adventure in Chile! This is the summer dream skiing you’ve been waiting for. Imagine this and you’ll capture a bit of Corralco in your mind’s eye: you’re staring into the cauldron of the Lonquimay volcano, you look around at breath taking scenery, and now you point your skis down, making your descent in fresh powder back to the base of the resort. This is a ski adventure unlike what you have experienced before. With a landscape of contrasts and unconfined terrain, Corralco will amaze the ski mountaineer and intrepid connoisseur alike. Come with or without climbing skins, this is also an area designed to thrill intermediates and advanced resort skiers.
Corralco Mountain & Ski Resort is located in the southern Andes, just 90 minutes away from Temuco, within the imposing landscape of Malalcahuello National Reserve. Here natural beauty, exquisite landscapes, snow, and mountains combine to make this ski resort a world-class destination. Corralco has been a secret for both advanced and beginner skiers for years. With new lifts in place – total 6 – and 1300+ acres of skiing, a new hotel, and NASTC’s week-long ski improvement curriculum, you’re in for your best ski training vacation ever. The optional climbing above the lifts allows those who want to even more vertical and breath-taking views.
NASTC has set the standards since 1994 for expert ski instruction, providing “total immersion” clinics at the most demanding resorts in the world. Born as an alternative to homogenized lessons, we’ve created curriculum that never fails to bring you up a full level. Whether intermediate, advanced, or expert, you will improve, enjoy life-changing experiences, and meet friends you’ll cherish in and out of your ski world. This clinic, like all our others, will be led by staff that are the absolute top in their field, compassionate coaches, with in-depth knowledge of what it takes to create defining moments in clients’ skiing progress. You’ll enjoy an intimate group setting, with a class ratio of no more than 6:1 (client : trainer), and the learning starts at morning stretch, thru breakfast, skiing all day 9-3PM with yummy lunch break, afternoon tech talks, right thru to dinner!
Valle Corralco Hotel & Spa opened in 2013 at the base of the mountain. For the discerning guest, this experience will not disappoint, with 54 rooms, a restaurant, bar, SPA, gym, movie theater, convention hall and 5-star service.
For those who crave the beautiful and unique landscape of southern Chile, deep powder, long runs, no crowds, the best instruction available, and a relaxing remote vacation, this is it. This is once in a lifetime, and we plan to offer it for a long time!
