Private Desert Ski Experience in Lima – 4x4 to Protected Dunes
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
You ski in the mountains — now ski in the desert.
This private experience takes place inside Lima’s only protected desert ecosystem, where adapted skis allow you to ride dynamic dune slopes that simulate powder-style terrain.
Unlike traditional tours, this experience is designed specifically for intermediate to advanced skiers.
You’ll receive assistance, terrain safety briefing, and guided progressive descents across multiple dune fields.
Private 4x4 access, certified instructors, and controlled terrain adaptation make this a rare and technically curated desert ski experience.
Private. Challenging. Different.

Sometimes you just need a dune and a little boost to figure out how capable you are.

5.00Skiing in sand was one of the best experiences I have ever had. The coaches were amazing: encouraging, patient and very professional. They inspire you to try, trust you and overcome the initial fear, but always prioritize your safety. At no time did I feel unnecessary risk, just constant support and good energy. I loved that they respected the rhythm of each person. In my case, I was so happy that I didn’t want to rest (I didn’t want to waste a minute going down the dunes!). And yet, they were always attentive to how I felt and that everything was under control.
Such an awesome & unique experience!!

5.00Aldo, our guide/instructor, and Carlos, our driver, were very friendly and knowledgable! We were experienced snow skiiers and boarders, but were humbled by the experience on sand. Very challenging and fun! I would definitely reccommend this to folks who are looking for a unique recreational activity in the Lima area.
Fun and adventure with a great local guide

5.00The guide and driver were awesome. So much fun. Our first time sand skiing and Carlos and Ronaldo made it exciting and special. Two true locals with an extra cute little dog. If your are seeking fun and adventure these is the guide to book with.
New fun experience

5.00We were both skiiers and and a boarder, and had a great time in the sand. The guide did a great job describing similarities and differences to the snow, and the driver did a great job driving the dunes.
