Back by popular demand, Extremely Canadian will return to Las Lenas, Argentina for the 3 trips; August 27-September 3, September 3-10 and 10-17, 2005.

It’s no surprise that so many freeskiers make the pilgrimage from around the world to satisfy their skiing thirst in Las Lenas, Argentina. Las Lenas offers more lift-serviced terrain than any other ski area in the Western Hemisphere, along with unsurpassed views of the magnificent Andes… it’s something you have to see for yourself.

And if you have some extra energy to burn or enjoy too many siestas, the Argentinean's nocturnal culture will yield an amazing experience. The base facilities are of an international level with 13 hotels, 10 diverse restaurants, bars, a casino, a shopping centre and a complete infrastructure to serve its multinational clientele.

Our guides are amazed by how unreal the terrain is, luring them back year after year to get their fix of the unique skiing found only at Las Lenas. It is consistently our most popular trip, so be sure to book early so you don’t miss out on this incredible trip.

Itinerary: Guests arrive in Buenos Aires on August 26th or (Sep 2nd or 9th) and spend the night; we recommend the Hotel Murano and we can assist in booking a room. On the morning of Aug 27th or (Sep 3rd or 10th) you fly to Las Lenas. Check in to the Hotel Escorpio, get settled and maybe make a few turns in the afternoon, and the Extremely Canadian portion of the trip begins that evening with a welcome reception. For the next 6 days, expect to ski hard, enjoy the nightlife, eat gourmet food, drink fine Argentinean wine and generally have a great time. On the morning of the Sept 3rd or (Sept 10th or 17th), we will fly back to Buenos Aires. On the way home, it is recommended that you book your flight for very late that night, or better yet, plan to stay in Buenos Aires for another night and catch the first plane out on the 14th. Please check with Extremely Canadian before booking flights, to ensure your connections will
be OK.
