Skiing in Cerro Bayo
Villa La Angostura,
in the Province of Neuquén, on the shore of Lago Nahuel Huapi,
opposite to Bariloche,
is a small mountain village inhabited by nature fans and
ecology guardians. Only 9 kilometers from the commercial area
of this Villa is Cerro
Bayo, with 1782 meters above sea level.
The development of this ski center started 25 years ago with
the foundation of the Club Andino Villa La Angostura, and from
the strong belief and faith of a few pioneer who saw in the yet
unexplored slopes of Cerro Bayo the promising future of a great
winter activities center.
Four double chairlifts, two of them from the base, five ski
lifts, a T-bar and two baby-lifts are the transportation means
that can transfer 4500 skiers an hour without waiting for too
long. It has 20 kilometers of tracks and also paths to ski off
the tracks. Its 200 hectares to ski stretch along the slopes covered
by the Bayo forest, which permits the snowboarders to surf.
At the base of the hill there is a complex with all the necessary
infrastructure: equipment rental,
day care, ski training center and first aids center. There also
are restaurants and bars at different points to let you enjoy
delicious dishes and have the sun at their terraces.
