Trekking Los Gigantes - Córdoba

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 trek in Los Gigantes is often chosen as a first experience in the mountains. With a good general level of health and the right attitude, most people can complete the ascent.

On average, we walk around six hours per day. The itinerary includes areas affected by landslides, steep trails, and uneven terrain, but you’ll always be accompanied by our guides, who will support you whenever needed.

To move comfortably in the mountains, packing smart is key. Less unnecessary weight means a better experience.

The basics start with the 3-layer system:
- Base layer (breathable): helps keep sweat away from your body and avoid moisture
- Mid layer (insulation): a fleece or synthetic jacket to keep you warm
- Outer layer (waterproof/windproof): protection against rain and strong winds

You should also bring:
- Trekking shoes or boots (with good grip, and already worn to avoid blisters)
- Backpack (around 40–60 liters)
- Water bottles or hydration system (capacity for 2 liters)
- Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat
- Trekking poles are recommended

No, the experience is not cancelled due to rain in the forecast. We monitor weather conditions constantly and know that mountain forecasts can change, with the most reliable updates usually coming 24 to 48 hours in advance.
Our team is trained to manage safety and make decisions based on real conditions in the mountains.

You’ll be doing physical activity for 2 days, so staying hydrated is non-negotiable. We recommend drinking at least 2 liters per day to help your body adapt to the environment.

At the mountain hut, you’ll have access to Wi-Fi.
Once the trek begins, there’s no mobile signal. We recommend using "Airplane Mode" to disconnect, enjoy the surroundings, and save battery.

Yes, you’ll have the chance to charge your devices at the mountain hut.
Charging is available for a few hours each day, and in some cases, it’s not allowed to leave phones or cameras plugged in overnight.
One important tip: at night, keep your phone and power banks inside your sleeping bag, as the cold drains batteries very quickly.

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.
