Witness the awe-inspiring Andean landscapes of the Aconcagua Provincial Park on this trip from Mendoza and see the rich wilderness between Argentina and Chile!

Day Trip Details

At the designated time, we will pick you up at your hotel in Mendoza and drive east along the National Route 7 towards the border area with Chile.

During a three-hour drive, we will enjoy traditional pancakes and a choice of mate, coffee, or tea. We will pass through the Andean village of Cacheuta, see the Potrerillos Reservoir, and the Cordón del Plata mountain range.

The excursion continues through the villages of Uspallata and Horcones until we reach the Puente del Inca, where we will learn about its legend. We will then head to the Aconcagua Provincial Park Visitors' Center.

We will embark on an easy 2.5-hour trek to 10,000 ft above sea level, visiting the Horcones Lagoon and Quebrada del Durazno Bridge, where we will pause for a picnic lunch featuring Carne Criolla empanadas, fruits, alfajores, various sweets, and wine from Mendoza.

Afterward, we will return on foot to the visitor's center, board the bus, and head back to the hotel in Mendoza, arriving approximately 10 hours after pickup.
