This guided climbing expedition to Aconcagua offers a great way to experience the spectacular Andes of Argentina and reach one of the Seven Summits. This expedition is a great stepping stone for the world’s highest peaks, like Mount Everest, and a great introduction to full blown expeditionary climbing.
You will climb via the Normal Route along the Northwest Ridge, which is a non-technical, yet physically demanding climb that incorporates all the logistics of climbing a big mountain. All of the equipment is carried to base camp by mules. You guides will follow the philosophy of climb high and sleep low as they establish a series of higher camps while ascending Aconcagua.
This route begins at Plaza de Mulas, a vibrant base camp at the head of the Horcones Valley and utilizes three higher camps to gain the summit. You climb expedition style by acclimatizing while stocking camps before the final summit attempts.
The guides have also built in numerous inclement weather days to the schedule to allow more time to attempt the summit climb. These factors enable proper acclimatization and greatly increase our chances for success.
There is an option for porter support to all camps. This enables you to carry only the items needed during the day and will increase your chances of success.
