La Hoya is a ski resort in the Chubut province of Patagonia (Argentina). The resort is famous for its bowl-shaped topography with the ski slopes facing south (so they're in the shade throughout the day). Temperatures are colder at La Hoya than in neighboring areas and the resort tends to have powder conditions and the ski season lasts longer than at other area resorts.
Modern, clean ski lodge with huge windows looking onto the slopes. Portions are generous but prices are high.
Pleasant mountainside ski lodge. Serves soups, stews and sandwiches.
Full range of ski and snowboard equipment.
Aerolineas Argentinas flies from Jorge Newbury Aeroparque in Buenos Aires to Esquel (EQS), the nearest town. Flights take about 2-1/2 hours each way and are reasonably priced.
