The Worlds Best Downhill Skiing - Las Lenas

With its 27 pistes and non-stop prepared runs of up to 7 kilometers, Las Lenas is the largest and most popular ski resort in South America. Located in the western part of the Argentinean Mendoza Province, it is, however, the powder and tremendous off-piste skiing that draws the enthusiasts to this place.

"For years it has attracted the best of the best, who flock to Las Lenas to train and vacation during the Northern Hemisphere summer months. It is steep, very steep. The large amount of extreme, lift-accessible terrain mostly accessed by the famous Marte chairlift, makes it a playground for international daredevils, pro skiers/ snowboarders and powder hounds."
