La Hoya ski resort is located close to the town of Esquel in the Province of Chubut.
The name La Hoya comes from the mountain shape, which is a wide glacier above a circular basin where all the ski runs join at the same point at the base. In the 1930’s, pioneer skiers from the region discovered this attractive natural formation and began to visit the mountain and discover its gems.
La Hoya (ski Esquel) offers up trails for all abilities but its most outstanding feature is the unbeatable off-piste skiing and riding.
