Our program reach two Andes icons, the highest mountain in South America and the Southernmost 6000 in the world, mt Marmolejo (6108masl). We climb Marmolejo to have the best posible acclimatization process before try Aconcagua.
In 8 days in Chile we reach summit in Marmolejo, another day resting in Santiago and another 10 days in the Parque Provincial Aconcagua including 1 extra day to attemp summit in case of bad weather.
Aconcagua is the highest Mountain along the Andes Range and named by the Quechua culture as the White Sentinel, similar to what was called by the Aymara culture who named it The Stone Sentinel. It is placed in Argentina very close to the Chilean capital city of Santiago. Annually it is visited by hundreds of mountaineers from all around the world who are trying to achieve this objective which is without further questions, a great challenge to any mountaineer professional.

Expedition’s schema
Private Service: You choose the best convenience date for you and your group. Price depending on number of people booked.
We’ll head towards Confluencia Camp where we’ll acclimatize in order to not force the body into critical conditions and thus have optimal chances of success.
We’ll start the approach towards Plaza de Mulas where we’ll set up the base camp. We’ll stay there for a couple of days.
We’ll trekking to the next camp “Nido de Cóndores”. Then we’ll head back to base camp to spend the night. This is a key process to our expedition because we’ll get to a 5,300 masl and then we’ll head back to sleep at 4.260mts, which is optimal for acclimatisation work.
From this point we’ll be at just one camp to the final camp, Colera Camp. This camp is placed over the 5.900mts. We’ll leave early morning in order to set up this camp and then spend the night at that altitude. This camping is due to modifications according to the lead guide criteria which will take the possibility of reach summit or not from the Nido de Cóndores camp.
This should be the most important day of our expedition, since we’ll take it to the Aconcagua’s summit on this day. From Berlin camp to the summit is about a 1.000mts upwards which can be overpass after 10 to 12 hours hike.
We’ll take down the high camp and head back to base camp (Plaza de Mulas).
The whole group will be driven to the airport.
