High Private Half-Day Mountain : Foals and Lunch

About this experience

We are looking for accommodation in a private vehicle and we start the day from Mendoza. We take a brief city tour, starting at General San Martín Park, we go until we reach Cerro de la Gloria, beautiful views of the City and the mountain.

From there we continue towards Cacheuta, already in the mountains, and cross the Cacheuta-Potrerillos Tunnel to the most beautiful stop of the day: a viewpoint with the dam and the mountain reflected in the water, enjoying as long as you want.

Back, we will go to the last stop of the day for lunch. They will enjoy a sandwich of their choice, a flan with dulce de leche, and a bottle of wine to share between two, with the best view of the mountain.

When they finish, the driver will be waiting for you to take you back to the accommodation.

* This experience is ideal for those who don't have the whole day and want to get to know the mountain up close. It can be combined with another experience in the afternoon.

Guide

  • The snow-streaked summit of Aconcagua rising above a dry Andean valley

    Guide

    Aconcagua, and what it takes to walk in

    At 6,961 m it is the highest mountain outside Asia, and most people who see it do so from a car park on Ruta 7. The trek to Confluencia and Plaza de Mulas is the honest middle ground.

  • Route 7 running west out of Uspallata between bare Andean ridges

    Guide

    The Alta Montaña road, Mendoza to the border

    Route 7 west out of Mendoza climbs 3,000 metres to the Chilean border past Potrerillos, Uspallata, Puente del Inca and the Aconcagua lookout. What to stop for, and what the day actually costs you.
