Caviahue is a resort in Neuquén (Argentina) skied between 1600 and 2200 metres.
Caviahue is in Neuquén, Argentina, with the base at 1600 m and the top at 2200 m.
Caviahue is in Neuquén (Argentina) and you get there by car: from Presidente Perón (NQN), 4h by car away. The access road changes with the snowfall — chains, ice, queues — so it is worth checking the day's report and cameras at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/argentina/caviahue before setting off.
Caviahue has not announced its opening date for the 2026 season yet. Our own estimate, based on the resort's altitude and its past seasons, puts it around June 20, 2026: that is a forecast, not an announcement. The resort confirms the date each autumn and we keep it up to date at https://www.caranva.app/en/esqui/fechas-apertura/caviahue.
Caviahue is expected to close for the 2026 season on September 21, 2026. The real date depends on how the snow holds up at the top (2200 m) late in the season, and the resort usually announces it only a few weeks ahead: the up-to-date version is at https://www.caranva.app/en/esqui/fechas-apertura/caviahue.
It changes daily and the resort itself publishes it every morning: snow depth by altitude, open runs and open lifts. The Caviahue daily report and forecast are at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/argentina/caviahue, and the live cameras at https://www.caranva.app/en/webcams/esqui/caviahue. When it blows hard, the most exposed lifts are usually the upper ones (2200 m), so it is worth checking before driving up.
Between 1600 and 2200 metres, a vertical drop of 600 m. That difference is why the snow is not the same across the whole resort on the same day: the upper slopes hold up better late in the season, while the lower part, at 1600 m, is the first to feel rain or warm weather. That is why the Caviahue report is read by altitude band, at https://www.caranva.app/en/nieve/argentina/caviahue.
