Aconcagua Trekking

The Aconcagua mountain is a unique symbol of the province of Mendoza. It is the highest peak in the Americas, reaching 6,962 meters above sea level. In today's planned trekking, we will visit the Confluencia camp, the first mandatory stop on the way to the summit, and delight in some of the most beautiful mountain landscapes.

DETAILS

The Aconcagua Park is located near the border with Chile, and it is where the highest mountain in the world outside of Asia is found, with its almost 7,000 meters of altitude. Aconcagua means "stone sentinel" in an indigenous language, and with this activity, we will head towards Confluencia (3,300 meters above sea level). This is the point for camping and acclimatization for hikers preparing to climb the mountain. 

The national route 7 leads us to Aconcagua Provincial Park, whose unique beauty allows us to see countless mountains, ravines, and valleys. The trek to Confluencia is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy several experiences along the same route. 

Physical activity will perfectly combine with the full enjoyment of the surroundings. On the circuit we will undertake, it will be possible to appreciate the impressive south wall of Aconcagua just after the start of the hike. It will take almost three hours to reach the camp, where we will find ourselves immersed in a great panorama of mountains and glaciers. 

For those who enjoy nature and activity, this will be their ideal route, as it is impossible to describe in words what it means to be in front of such imposing mountains, breathing pure air, and trying to keep every detail in their memory. We recommend that you have your own experience!
