As being part of the Tres Valles of ski resorts close to Santiago - along with La Parva and Valle Nevado, El Colorado is considered a locals' ski resort. In fact, El Colorado comprises two ski areas, namely El Colorado and Farellones, both situated above two interconnected villages (Villa Colorado and Villa Farellones). Combined, the two ski areas make up an extensive treeless ski resort.

A great number of runs is well suited to beginners with Farellones being only for beginners and tubing enthusiasts. Due to its gentle slopes and snow tubing, the ski resort is popular with beginners and families.

Moreover, the resort offers a store, three restaurants, a pub and a ski rental service. The ski school is considered to be international with qualified instructors from diverse countries. Lodging here includes hotels, apartments and houses or even hostel style backpackers, which are reasonably priced and definitely less expensive thus providing better value for money than other ski resorts nearby.
