Cerro Mercedario

Mercedario, the highest mountain in San Juan, and the seventh of America. Season by season, this hill is receiving more and more international climbers looking for authentic experiences, new challenges and less crowded mountains. Near from Aconcagua, is 6770 meters high above sea level and different ways to get to the summit, some of them not explored or rarely performed. Rock, Ice and Mix climbing with the entire difficulties and lengths spectrum can be done here. Is a wonderful site to discover, doing trekking, climbing, or horseback riding and it hosts some archeological pieces from the Incas and picturesque sceneries.

Paso de Aguas Negras

Reviewed By maizemiller2003 - Howick, South Africa

If you are looking for an exiting experience, drive over this Paso. In both directions, the views are fantastic. The colorful mountains are something not to be missed. Early morning drive from Argentina to Chile, and afternoon from Chile eastwards.

Parque Provincial Ischigualasto - Valle de la Luna

Reviewed By cshekh

The natural highlight of our trip to Argentina. There is a system that allows your car (in our case with our driver, guide, and generally good person, Jorge Luis Ontevirus of Comechingones Viajes, Merlo, San Luis Province) in. The lead car has the guide, a very good one who managed to communicate with us just fine though we had no Spanish and he had a little English. The park is very well managed, the views incredible. Two museums, at beginning and midway, the circuit took us around 3 hours, approximately 40 km. Excellent organization, friendly staff, unforgettable experience.
