Winter Activities

Backcountry Skiing

Corralco features several types of tracks, designed for ski experts, and gentle slopes for those who are just beginning to practice the white sport. All tracks are surrounded by Araucarias forests, which allow you to be in direct contact with nature while you have a nice work-out down the hill.

You can choose to ski with a qualified guide, who can give you any type of information you need on the sport, the centre and the place you are skiing and/or snowboarding, such as the flora and fauna that lives in the area.

Ecotrack rides

Ecotrack is a carterpillar track minibus that takes people to different places in the mountain, with almost no environmental impact.

All rides are constructed so visitors can get to know in the most comfortable and interesting way, all the surroundings in the Malalcahuello National Reserve, where the Navidad Crater stands out. Visitors can discover the most amazing views and sceneries of Chilean and Argentinean volcanoes in the area, getting to see beyond the Ralco Lagoon.

After a day exploring and discovering places, you can enjoy a drink or spend the rest of the say skiing down the hill, descending the tracks all the way to the lodge.

Racket Walks

For those who enjoy taking long walks, doing so using snow rackets is an easy proposal for anybody who wants to be in direct contact with nature, going places you cannot access with skis and enjoying the environment as a whole. The circuit, which has been prepared by qualified guides, takes you to vast and spacious paths in the Malalcahuello National Reserve, which has over 13.500 hectares of typical flora and fauna.

If you already know how to walk with snow rackets, the challenge becomes walking by the Lonquimay volcano, maybe even getting to the crater which is over 800 meters long and completely covered in snow.

Racket walks is a fun activity, especially if you like to take photographs of different sceneries. The unique beauty of this place and the contrast of colours in winter time, make the perfect subject of your photographs and videos.

If you do not have your own ski rackets, do not worry. At Corralco, you will be able to rent some quality rackets, which will allow you to enjoy a very nice walk.

Randoneé

In the largest ski area in South America, you can find virgin ground in which to practice Randonneé. This sport is practiced by the Lonquimay volcano in the spring, and it's not strange to find tracks of skiers who made the same trip between November and December.

Randonneé skiing allows people to access places only Andinists were able to get to before.

While you access these virgin places, you can enjoy the beautiful view of the Araucania, which includes volcanoes and Araucaria forests. A truly amazing experience you cannot pass when you visit Southern Chile.
