Caviahue is unlike anywhere else: runs through millennia-old araucaria forest on the slopes of the Copahue volcano, plus the unique bonus of ending the day in hot springs. It's quiet, family-friendly and one of the few resorts where the landscape competes with the skiing. The village is small — book lodging early for winter holidays.
