The snow storm in Villa Pehuenia had an impact on tourism since hotel occupancy dropped considerably, said Mayor Arturo de Gregorio.
The president told RÍO NEGRO RADIO that the routes were very complicated yesterday due to the intense snowfall and that the trucks were closed all day, especially access to the Aluminé and Pehuenia area.
“Today in the town it stopped snowing and it is just raining. Yesterday we were cleaning the accesses and streets all day so that people can circulate in the best way,” said the mayor.
“We had an occupancy of 50% and that increases over the course of the days that pass but due to the storm it dropped drastically because the routes were cut. We believe that some people are going to come today but not what we expected,” he said.
Due to inclement weather, the flag pledge in schools had to be postponed and will take place this Monday.
“Due to the storm they were working. The idea is to leave everything in good condition. There is a lot of snow and it is going to be a good season for skiing. “They are fine-tuning some details so people can come and enjoy,” she said.
“It is an ideal center to learn to ski for the whole family,” he said.
