Almost everyone in Bariloche Cerro Catedral skis, so snowboarding is still relatively new. However, the resort is embracing snowboarding with an ever-growing terrain park run by the resort freestyle staff.
The park is extremely safe with helmet
rules enforced and competitions run by the local instructors all season. This
year (2008) sees an even better park plan with a number of advanced features
being introduced including a "black line" featuring more difficult jumps and
rails. The lack of flat sections and the easy access to tree runs in Catedral
means that snowboarders like the resort. There are few runs that require a
walkout and most off piste in the Catedral area is accessible to skiers and
boarders alike.
