All the ski resorts in Argentina offer quality skiing and accommodation depending what you are looking for. Las Lenas tends to be highest on the foreign skier and snowboarders wish list for the best place to ski in Argentina, especially for advanced and experts due to the resorts steep terrain, dry powder snow and endless back-country touring options.
Patagonia is much colder than Mendoza and the ski resorts are at lower levels with the highest skiing point being around 2000m which is similar to the Scandinavian ski resorts.
The Lake District is in the north of Patagonia with Bariloche being the main city and gateway to the ski resorts and lakes. The scenery around the Lake District is nothing less than spectacular and from the mountain peaks, the 360 degree views are incredible.
And way down south at the end of the world at parallel 54 degrees is Cerro Castor. This southern ski resort is located near Ushuaia in the Tierra del Fuego. The base station sits at only 195m above sea level but is irrelevant given the vast quantities of snow that cover this part of the world.
