brief itinerary
Chile & Brazil
Ski and Beach
Enjoy a fantastic and unusual combination of summer skiing in the Andes and relaxation on a beautiful Brazilian beach. Chillán offers arguably the best skiing conditions in Chile with consistently excellent snow, wide open slopes and a friendly, informal atmosphere. Afterwards, travel to Brazil where you can spend a week relaxing on the sands of stylish Buzios, just north of Rio. This holiday is tailored to suit you. How active?
Chillán is made up of some 10,000 hectares of pisted slopes both above and below the tree line. Spread over the slopes of two volcanoes, the resort has consistently good snow with excellent conditions for both skiers and boarders. For the more experienced, there is plenty of accessible off-piste, and for the less experienced, lessons are included in week-long stays. In Buzios you can be as active as you like. There are over 20 bays surrounding the town, each with its own flavour and atmosphere. Choose whether to swim, snorkel, dive, windsurf, sail, kayak or just relax on the beach.
