PLAZA FRANCIA

MENDOZA, ARGENTINA

VIEWPOINT OF THE SOUTH WALL OF ACONCAGUA

This landmark located at 4200 meters above sea level in the Quebrada de Horcones is a unique experience offered by the amazing Aconcagua Park.

Although this proposal does not present technical difficulties, we have to take into account the slope and therefore the physical effort to be made. The trekking will be done on trails and moraines of comfortable walking.

We will share a camping night in Confluencia, which will help in our acclimatization process.
From the Mirador de Francia we will be able to appreciate the imposing south face of Aconcagua in all its fullness.

We invite you to be part of this adventure and enter into a mountaineering level enjoying the Andes in its maximum expression.
