July 26 , 2023 | News

The iconic Cerro Aconcagua, the highest mountain in America and the Southern Hemisphere! At High Mountain, we are excited to introduce you to three exciting expedition programs that will allow you to conquer this majestic colossus and enjoy the grandeur of the Argentine Andes.

Cerro Aconcagua is a jewel in the world of mountaineering, not only because it is the highest mountain in America, but also because it is part of the prestigious “Circuit of the 7 Summits”. This select list of the highest mountains on each continent attracts mountaineers from around the world in search of epic challenges and unforgettable experiences.

360º Route – Explore all corners of Aconcagua Park!

Our exciting 360º route is a unique experience that will take you through the two valleys of Aconcagua Park. This expedition is perfect for those who want to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the region and enjoy breathtaking panoramic views from different perspectives. During this program, you will cross varied landscapes and connect with nature in its purest state. At the beginning we will visit the quieter and less visited valley. Upon returning from the summit, we will go down through the most visited sector to see the classic base camp of Plaza de Mulas

Normal Route – The classic way to the summit!

If you are looking for the ultimate challenge, our normal route is for you. This is the traditional path to the top of Aconcagua for its most direct and traditional route, passing through the well-known camps in the valley. This expedition gives you the opportunity to face the challenge of reaching its summit, at 6,962 meters above sea level. You will experience a gradual and challenging ascent, overcoming various obstacles and altitude changes. Our team of expert guides will accompany you on this unforgettable journey and will provide you with the necessary support and security to reach the highest peak in America.

Normal Express Route – For experienced mountaineers in search of new peaks!

Designed especially for experienced mountaineers and previous acclimatization, the express route offers you a unique opportunity to face the challenge of the summit without the need for prolonged acclimatization. Ideal for those who have conquered other mountains of significant altitude such as Chimborazo, Ojos del Salado or Llullaillaco, this expedition will take you directly to the highest point of Aconcagua, giving you an intense and exciting experience.

At High Mountain, our passion for the mountains and our commitment to safety and excellence guide us on every expedition.
