One of the newer ski areas, El Colorado is
located only 40 Km. from Santiago at an altitude of 10,000 feet (3,000
meters) and is the highest of the two sister snow ski villages (Farellones
being the other).
This
is a modern ski complex with 19 ski lifts, lodging, ski shops,
restaurants, night clubs and artificial snow making equipment ( just in
case) El Colorado is a great place to have that weekend or longer ski
holiday.
