Argentina – on the Andes’s Rooftop
December 19, 2020 – January 10, 2021
An adventure to the highest summit of North and South America with expeditionary taste and a breath of aromatic wine.
Aconcagua (6962m) is the highest peak in the Americas, as well as in the Southern and Western Hemispheres, and is also the highest extinct volcano in the world. With its nearly 7000m height, far from the civilization, climbing it is a real expedition that we invite you to embark on with us. Wild mountains, breathtaking views, thin air, high altitude camps are all part of the emotions you will experience.
Aconcagua is located on the territory of the national park, named after the summit, in the province of Mendoza, Argentina, near the border with Chile. The park was declared a protected area in 1983 and covers an area of 71,000 ha with representative Alpine ecosystems typical for the high Andes. We will make the acclimatization for the ascent on the slopes of the Cerro Plata, aiming to reach Vallecitos Peak (5461m) if weather conditions are suitable.
Along with the mountain scenery, during this trip we will be able to enjoy some of the other beauties of Argentina that make it a paradise for every traveler – wildlife, cosmopolitan cities and authentic culture. The country extends almost 3500 km in length from Bolivia in the north to the southernmost part of the continent, encompassing a wide range of climatic zones, making it extremely rich in flora and fauna.
