Pillán Ski Center, formerly known as Ski Pucón, is located on the slopes of Volcán Villarrica, in the heart of the Araucanía Region. This center combines the adrenaline of snow sports with the beauty of southern Chile: views of the lake, native forest, and an active volcano as a backdrop. It offers slopes for all skill levels, chairlifts, equipment rental, and a privileged location within the Villarrica National Park. It's an ideal destination for those who want to enjoy skiing or snowboarding in a unique natural setting, with the option to complement the experience with hot springs, local gastronomy, and activities in Pucón or Villarrica.
