Have the time of your life at Portillo! Your personal ski area.

With 1,235 acres of ski-able terrain, 14 lifts, and only 450 guests, you’ll never have to wait in a lift line or share the mountain with crowds. Beginner and intermediate runs are groomed daily; off-piste runs are challenging and steep, and the powder is often deep. Pair this with frequently sunny, blue skies and it is easy to understand why many guests, even professional skiers, say they’ve had some of their best ski days at Portillo. Our ski and snowboard terrain has played host to the World Championships and the World Speed Trials. Take pleasure in the majestic view of the surrounding 20,000-foot peaks and beautiful Lake Inca. The season opens mid June and closes the first week of October.

Portillo is one of the most unique ski resorts in the world. Why? Because Portillo offers extraordinary terrain, breathtaking surroundings, and an abundance of amenities and indoor activities – for just 450 guests. As other ski resorts become bigger and more impersonal, Portillo continues to handcraft its vacations. For more than 60 years, the owners of Portillo have strived to keep the hotel and ski center small and intimate, yet with all the modern conveniences guests have come to expect.
