Our Vision: A Community Without Borders
The Andes offer what the Northern Hemisphere can’t: winter powder when it’s summer up north, uncrowded slopes, honest snow that keeps you humble, and scenery that stops you dead.
Official sites show the polished, commercial version. We want the real one—the one only riders can tell.
Alta Patagonia was born from a simple realization: the best stories aren't found in brochures, but in the chairlifts, the mountain huts, and the quiet moments before dropping into a couloir.
We are creating the definitive community for South American skiing. Whether you are a local who knows every secret stash in the Backbowls of Catedral, or a traveler planning your first trip to the Southern Cone, this is your home.
Built on Your Stories
That’s why this platform is built on your experiences.
From veterans who watched speed skiing records shattered in Portillo...
To fresh reports from a legendary storm cycle in Chapelco...
To those first turns in the beginner’s pen that changed everything.
Every featured piece comes from someone who’s lived it. We don't just talk about skiing; we celebrate the culture, the grit, and the "mountain cure" that only the Patagonia wilderness can provide.
We believe that once the mountain marks you, you never truly stop being a skier. You become part of a global tribe that speaks the language of the Andes.
Alta Patagonia is a collaborative space. We are here to bridge the gap between hemispheres and provide an authentic voice to the most awe-inspiring mountain range on Earth.
This is our story. Now, we want to hear yours.

They write for us
Mauro | Carving the Andes since 1978. "Born in Portillo", I’ve left a trail of perfect tracks and epic wipeouts on every slope I could find. A lifelong beginner, because the snow has no mercy for the arrogant. Currently in the Middle East, but always just one flight away from the slopes. The summit awaits us, brother. Let’s go!
Guillermo | Guardian of the slopes and mentor of the peaks. From the heart of the Pyrenees in Andorra, my mission goes beyond teaching a sport—it’s about conquering the impossible. I believe that on the mountain, there are no barriers, only new paths to be forged. Specialized in adaptive skiing and snowboard instruction, I transform physical challenges into absolute freedom on the snow. Passing the flame to new generations: where others see an obstacle, we see the perfect run. The mountain belongs to everyone!
