Cerro del Medio Expedition (4,170 m) – Mendoza

Of course! You can join any of our scheduled dates. We keep our groups small to ensure a more personal experience, with a strong focus on safety and group connection.
Our groups are usually made up of solo travelers, friends, and couples. If you’re looking for something more private or can’t find a date that works for you, get in touch and we can design a custom experience so your group can explore the mountains at your own pace.

Yes — food won’t be something you need to worry about. Preparing inclusive meals is an important part of what we do. We offer vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, even in the middle of the mountains.
We just ask that you let us know in advance when booking, so we can plan everything carefully and make sure your meals are properly organized.

It’s simple. First, send us a message on WhatsApp at +54 9 3512 11-3842 to check availability for your preferred date. Then, you secure your spot with a deposit.
From there, we take care of all the logistics. You just fill out your medical form, pack your backpack, and get ready for the experience.

The estimated arrival time in Mendoza City is around 4:00 pm. We know many participants have flights or buses to catch, so the guides manage the pace to meet this schedule.

That said, the mountains always come first: if there are weather-related situations (rising rivers or storms), times may vary. We recommend booking your return for the evening or the next day so you can enjoy the experience without stress.

We meet on the first day at 8:00 am at the YPF (ACA) station in Mendoza. From there, we begin our logistics and transfer to the Cordón del Plata Provincial Park.

Most travelers sleep in Mendoza City the night before the meeting point. For audited options, browse the official Greater Mendoza accommodation listings at https://mendoza.tur.ar/listings/gran-mendoza/alojamientos/

No—we don’t cancel the trip just because apps show showers. Forecasts tighten 24–48 hours out; guides watch fronts closely and reroute ridges if thunderstorms stack. Expect a Mendoza gear-rental stop before gates if jackets or crampons spike—your job is pacing breath, ours is contingency radios.

Once we begin the hike, there is usually no cellphone signal along the trails, so we recommend switching your phone to airplane mode to save battery.
During our stay at the mountain hut, Wi-Fi is normally available depending on wind and outage windows that day—you can recharge devices in the hut. At night keep phones and spare batteries deep inside your sleeping bag; cold drains batteries extremely fast.

You’ll be undertaking a strenuous effort above 4,000 m—hydration anchors acclimatization. Budget ~3.5 litres per day to offset dry air and cold.
Pure melt streams cross several legs; bilingual guides micromanage where to filter/refill bottles. Carry at least two litres combined across bottles/bladders whenever you leave camp.

Our focus isn’t on performance, but on creating a real mountain experience — a chance to disconnect from the city while still enjoying a high level of service in a remote setting.
- Small groups: We keep things relaxed, so you can enjoy the trail, take a breath, and connect with the group.
- Inclusive meals: We take care of all the food. Full board is included, with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options available, even in the mountains.
- Mountain hut stay: We sleep in mountain huts. Facilities are simple compared to the city, but it’s the perfect place to rest and share the day.
- Everything taken care of: You just pack your backpack — we handle the logistics and safety.
