SPANISH &
SKI
SANTIAGO / BARILOCHE
Take advantage of Santiago and Bariloche's ideal locations
for Spanish courses plus days off for skiing and snowboarding!
With Santiago resting at the foot of the
Andes, the capital city provides great access for local skiing
and snowboarding opportunities. Nearby peaks rise to over
5,000 meters (19,000 feet), giving the city a remarkable backdrop.
Bariloche, located in Patagonia and known
as the Aspen of Argentina, has a small resort town atmosphere,
with cafes, restaurants, and bars providing gathering points
after a day on the slopes.
The ski season runs from late June through September.
Most students may start classes on any Monday, however absolute
beginners need to follow the course
schedule.

NOTE: June
through September is our winter, however ski season varies
year to year with climate.
***We reimburse students for the ski portion of this package
