Trips to Aconcagua
The highest mountain outside of Asia, Aconcagua, is a remarkable mountain lying in the Mendoza region of Argentina. Aconcagua is one of the "seven summits," the highest peak on each continent, and represents a stage on an exceptional quest to summit all seven summits. A lofty goal on its own at 6,962 meters (22,841 ft), Aconcagua stands as the roof of South America!
Aconcagua is accessible yet a serious mountaineering objective due to inherent difficulties of the alpine climb. The greatest challenges are high altitude and potentially extreme weather. For success, climbers need good fitness, proper acclimatization, and proper logistics. The chances for success of our expedition are high with excellent planning and the experience of internationally certified high altitude guides. The Normal Route success rate is 75%.
