Beyond the Slopes: Valle Nevado Pairs World-Class Skiing With Wine, Music, & Wellness In The Andes

Valle Nevado, South America’s largest ski resort, perched high in the Chilean Andes, is elevating the winter experience with a blend of world-class skiing, fine wine, live music, and rejuvenating wellness programming. With an early season opening on June 13 and a reliable blanket of snow, Valle Nevado continues to prove it’s more than just a ski destination; it's a hub for immersive cultural and lifestyle events.

From August 12 - 16, Wine Week returns to Hotel Tres Puntas, inviting guests to savor Chile’s world-renowned wine culture through tastings, pairing dinners, brand launches, and vibrant wine fairs. Each evening from 5:30 p.m., attendees can sample vintages from top Chilean wineries, interact with winemakers, and soak in the relaxed, inviting atmosphere that defines Valle Nevado après-ski.

The celebration peaks on Saturday, August 16, with Wine & Music, an outdoor gathering produced in partnership with Wines of Chile. The event kicks off at 3:30 p.m. at La Fourchette Terrace and features a festive wine fair featuring 20 of Chile’s top wineries in a one-of-a-kind mountain setting. Guests can taste a carefully curated selection of wines, enjoy live music, and watch the sunset surrounded by snow-capped peaks, crisp alpine air, and great company. With direct sales, gourmet food pairings, and the opportunity to meet the vintners themselves, Wine & Music delivers an après-ski scene found nowhere else in the Andes. Both hotel guests and day visitors are welcome to experience this signature cultural highlight of the Valle Nevado winter season. Wine and Music tickets can be purchased here.

On Sunday, August 17, Valle Nevado will host the 4th Women’s Snow Gathering at its snowpark - a day dedicated to connection, fun, and empowerment for women who love the snow. The morning begins with outdoor yoga overlooking the Andes, followed by live music and snowboarding sessions where riders share tricks, teach jumps, and inspire more women to embrace the sport. This gathering focuses on community, learning, and pure good vibes open to all skill levels.

Next month, from September 10 - 13, Valle Nevado’s annual Wellness Week offers a transformative retreat, set against the awe-inspiring backdrop of the Andes. Guests can participate in yoga, dance therapy, outdoor meditation, and a variety of holistic wellness sessions designed to reconnect body, mind and spirit. This four-day event focuses on emotional balance, mindful workouts, stress management, and deep relaxation techniques. Skilled instructors guide the activities, encouraging learning, connection, and relaxation.

Beyond its expansive ski terrain, Valle Nevado is distinguished by its ability to merge outdoor adventure with cultural richness. Evening socials, culinary showcases featuring Chilean ingredients, and spa facilities await, all contributing to a deeply immersive mountain escape.

“These events are about bringing people together to enjoy the very best of Chile both on and off the slopes,” said Ricardo Margulis, general manager of Valle Nevado. “We want our guests to leave with unforgettable experiences that go beyond skiing.”
