VENUE DESCRIPTION
When aiming for some snow holidays in the Southern hemisphere, Argentina has some nice resorts in store. One of them is Cerro Chapelco, the most attractive resort in the Patagonian Andes. Located on 1,980 metres of altitude and providing 140 skiable hectares with slopes ranging from 20 to 45 degree, a fun park, big air jumps and one halfpipe, families as well as action seeking shredders are more than welcome. In addition, snow mobile tours can also be a nice variety.

In addition, the riding comes along with panorama views. While enjoying the silence of the lenga forest the impressive scenery with the Lake Lácar and the Lanín Volcano is the perfect setting for some breathtaking runs.

So, no wonder that the LG Snowboard FIS World Cup decided to hold the very first race on Argentinean soil in Chapelco. On September 12th and 13th, a snowboard cross race kicked of the sbx 2009 season. In 2010, another first full action race took place on the slopes of Chapelco.

Fot the 2011 season, the World Cup season's opener - unfortunately - had to be cancelled.
