The fastest, and most spectacular, way to get to Valle Nevado is by helicopter. The approximately 15-minute-long ride lifts skiers from either an aerodrome or a skyscraper rooftop in Santiago, offering sweeping views of the capital city and the jagged peaks and valleys of the Andes Mountains. Guests who opt for this method of transportation should be aware that luggage must be sent via ground transportation, however a small bag is permitted to carry ski gear and clothing, and other personal items.
