Once we arrive at Uspallata we will make our first stop. Here we will find ourselves in front of a pre-Hispanic settlement of Huarpes aborigines, and also with the southernmost point of the Inca empire. We will visit the Villas of Picheuta, Polvaredas, Punta de Vacas and the Los Penitentes ski complex. Here we will have free time to enjoy the ski lift. (input not included)
We will continue towards the Cerro Aconcagua Viewpoint Located in thethe provincial park that protects the area, in the highest region from the Andes without first losing sight of the impressive Inca Bridge, a natural architectural work with hot springs. Then we will meet Aconcagua, the highest point in America. Finally we will visit Villa Las Cuevas located at 3200 masl.
Between Villa Las Cuevas and the international tunnel we will find the path that allows us to go up to the Christ the Redeemer, a monument that symbolizes the union between Argentines and Chileans. Access to the monument is only enabled in summer.
After the visit we will be returning to our selected hotels in Mendoza at approximately 5:30 p.m. In summer, if we go up to Christ the Redeemer, the excursion will end in approximately 20 Hrs.
