The Experience

What your day looks like

If you would like to get to know the Andes like a mountaineer and experience a super complete day, this is the adventure for you. The Andes Hiking Tour in Mendoza takes place in Vallecitos, a beautiful village located in the Andes Mountain Range, 90 km away from Mendoza City and only 30 km from Potrerillos. Is it necessary to go camping, and go too far away from Greater Mendoza City to explore the immensity of the Andes? No. We can do it in just one day! This day trip proves it. We invite you to experience it. You will live a day as a mountaineer. We will start early to make the most of the day, and we will travel for 2 hours, enjoying the landscape that takes us to the foothills of Cordón del Plata. Once there, around 10:45 a.m., we will start our high-altitude hike, depending on the trail we have chosen. The diversity of the place offers many possibilities! And since we work with small groups and provide a personalized service, we define the itinerary together with each group. High altitude camps: this tour is ideal for those who want to take it easy or go with the family, as we will walk through ravines without steep slopes, to get to know those key places where climbers camp in their great expeditions. The panoramic views are not to be missed. La cadenita: If you are looking for something more demanding, this is a great option. It is a trail through three chained hills, at a continuous pace that requires training and implies a greater challenge. And as in all our trips, a good meal is a must. Whether as a reward for the effort, or motivation to continue, the moment in which we enjoy tasty meals completes the experience. Once the hike is finished, which will last approximately 4 to 5 hours, we will return to Mendoza City with the tiredness and satisfaction of having hiked a day among the great mountains of the Andes.
