2025 Ski Guide for Argentina with Prices and basic information.
Quick Notes:
Most popular are Catedral in Bariloche, Chapelco in San Martin de los Andes and Bayo in Villa La Angostura.
More economic/mom and pop. Perito Moreno in El Bolson and La Hoya in Esquel. Great options if you are bringing kids, especially during peak season.
The Best ski shop in Buenos Aires is EuroCamping/Eco Rental with a location near Teatro Colon and they have a location in Martinez which the owner is at. Great Service with new and used gear/repairs. You can rent winter clothes there and they have partners in many of the ski towns for gear. They also rent Beacon, Shovel, and Probes for backcountry skiers. https://www.eurocampingonline.com.ar/rental/
Resorts Listed from North to South Geographically - with links to website and lift ticket prices listed.
Las Leñas - 4 hour south of mendoza - Posh skiing, if the snow is good, backcountry the backcountry there is world class. I'd advise to go if you are a good skier/rider, leave the kids at home. Could be the best ski trip of your life.
Cerro Cavihue - 4 hours north of San Martin de Los Andes/ 4 hours from Neuquen - Out of the way but beautiful with other family activities. Great option for those drilling out in Vaca Muerte.
Cerro Chapelco - San Martin de Los Andes - It's a good resort, Ski School is generally the most expensive - In the process of new ownership. Easy access from San Martin. San Martin is a better town than Bariloche.
Cero Bayo - Villa La Angostura - Equidistant between San Martin and Bariloche - Great view of Nahuel Huapi. Some very good riding at the top gondola lift. Modern and solid.

Cerro Catedral - Bariloche - Biggest Resort in South America - It's a good place, good ski school. Recommend staying in the Kilometers south of DT, to avoid traffic getting to the resort.
Day Ticket 115.000/person - not official yet but the manager said the plan is to keep it the same as 2024, remains to be seen.
Cerro Perrito Moreno - El Bolson - Good Prices and great for bringing kids. Fly into Esquel or Bariloche.

La Hoya - Esquel - Close to Airport - Good affordable family option - Less busy than the others, like Perito Moreno.
Cerro Castor - Ushuaia - Usually consistent snow. Can be quite cloudy there like the PNW in the USA, solid riding though.
A traslado to and from the resort to your lodging is generally $50 a day for a group of 2. So Renting a car is not a bad idea. Chains are required on tires most of the time, so bring a few pesos and pay someone to do it for you real quick if you do not know how.
Here are 2 Facebook groups with great information
buy and sell backcountry gear there, Victor who runs the group is an OG and sells gear at great prices and is trustworthy, with a wealth of information for the adventurous advanced people.
This group has lots of up to date information on snow conditions and the happenings of the ski resorts.
Happy skiing/snowboarding to all those that partake.
