This is a very gradual ascent, away from the beaten path. This route circumnavigates the entire mountain. We follow the Vacas valley in order to reach our base camp. After setting four high camps on the pristine northern face, we join the regular route for summit day. We descend towards Plaza de Mulas and hike out along the Horcones valley. Length: 21 days.
 

This is the classic way to climb the mountain for people with time constraints. Our itinerary maximizes our time for the summit bid. Meridies services stand out by staying at the Plaza de Mulas Hotel. Length: 15 days.
 

This option includes two high altitude peaks and an efficient acclimatization plan. We spend the first week adapting to altitude in the range of Cordón del Plata, only 3 hrs away from Mendoza city. We will climb Vallecitos (5400m/17400 ft) before heading for the regular route on Aconcagua. Length: 19 days.
 

This is a brilliant introduction to high altitude mountaineering and to taste the Central Andes. You will get to explore a unique mountain range and climb Mt Vallecitos, a beautiful 17,400ft pyramid peak in the Cordón del Plata (The Silver Range). Length: 8 days.

 

This trekking trip will circumnavigate the highest peak in the Americas and reach 19,000ft. We will cross the broad Central Andes valleys and enjoy majestic glaciers and deep blue skies. This program schedule allows for free time in Mendoza . Length: 12 days.
 

This option is designed for people with previous experience in high altitude and glacier travel. Participants must be familiar with how to use crampons and ice axes on steep snow and ice. Due to the technical nature of this route, the guide/client ratio is usually 1:1 or 1:2 for summit day. Length: 20 days.
