Unlike the popular Aconcagua, here you will experience an expedition much more solitary, authentic and away from the crowds. It is the ideal destination for mountaineers looking for a real challenge and a deep connection with Andean nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our 15-day expedition includes traverses through remote valleys, nights under a starry sky and the possibility of sharing the mountain alone with your group. The itinerary is carefully designed for a progressive and safe acclimatization, increasing your chances of success on the summit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Encuentro en Mendoza, bienvenida y preparaci\u00f3n<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We will meet in the city of Mendoza, the starting point of all the great Andean expeditions. We will have a briefing where the guide will go over every detail of the itinerary, answer questions and do a thorough check of the personal and collective equipment. This first meeting is essential to get to know each other as a group and make sure we are all ready for the adventure.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-695","tours","type-tours","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aconcaguaexperiences.com.ar\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tours\/695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aconcaguaexperiences.com.ar\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tours"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aconcaguaexperiences.com.ar\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tours"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aconcaguaexperiences.com.ar\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
