The best information about the main winter resort

Portillo

Ski school

Renowned with good reason within the world ski sphere, the Portillo school has been feeding the resort legend for 60 years. It is enough to say that Mike Rogan, its director, is a member of the ski display team representing the United States, and that he instructs professionals of high international level from diverse countries. To take one's first steps in snow sports, practice styles or dare to try off-piste: the instructors teach and train according to their students' wishes. Private training sessions are offered for one or more skiers, or collective classes in all skiing and snowboarding levels.

If the idea is to measure skill, there is nothing better than enrolling in the Carrera Sol and compete against the best contestants in the resort, every Thursday during the season. The winners will receive their well-deserved medals in a singular ceremony held at the hotel lounge. Now, if the perfection is serious, the Portillo school offers a training clinic for races.

There are also classes for kids over 4, with a schedule working two hours a day from Sundays to Fridays.

Horseback Excursions

Those who wish to experiment something new may choose a horseback ride over mountains, amidst forests, along beaches or across streams with the whole family enjoying beautiful moments.
It is ideal to go on these excursions guided by the local experts and on docile Creole horses.
If you are going on a short excursion, it is not necessary that you can ride. A quick theoretical chat with the guide will be enough for you to get used to the reins.

Diving

This is one of the most complete sensations that the human being may feel.
Through diving, man could visit the bottom of the sea, see a sub-aquatic world, stroke fish and visit legendary shipwrecks, feeling completely safe and adapted to the water environment.
In order to practice this activity, it is not necessary to be in great shape, or to have a well-defined swimming style.
