GASTRONOMY1 / 5
Andean cooking can be found in charming mountain restaurants and bars found throughout Aconcagua. While most travelers are visiting on a trekking excursion and will be enjoying their meals on the go, there are some delicious places where you can indulge in something a little more elevated. Indigenous Argentinian dishes are served alongside exquisite wine produced in the nearby region of Mendoza.
CULTURE2 / 5
The extreme temperatures and terrain of Aconcagua Provincial Park have made this destination historically challenging to live in. But, ancient cultures like the Mapuche people and the Incan empire were able to use the Aconcagua mountain peak in more unseen ways, such as religious ceremonies, burial sites, and trade routes. Today, the various treks through the park can also serve as a look back at all the trekkers who have come before.
ADVENTURE3 / 5
For centuries, Aconcagua Mountain has loomed over the rest of the world with its tremendous skyscraping summit, tempting trekkers to try and conquer the peak. Until 1897, the mountain had never been successfully climbed during a documented excursion. The challenging terrain continues inviting hikers, climbers, and mountaineers from around the world to the park, where you can spend a few days on an epic journey to the top of the Western Hemisphere.
NATURE4 / 5
Beyond the extreme trekking excursions available in the park, Aconcagua offers a captivating natural expanse that can certainly be enjoyed at a slower, easier pace. In the valley of the park, there are postcard-worthy landscapes to observe while looking for the foxes, guanacos, and other local wildlife trotting through the park. You can also enjoy a drive along the Mendoza River or visit the Laguna de Horcones, a crystal pool created by melting glaciers.
WELLNESS5 / 5
Visiting Aconcagua Provincial Park is an excellent opportunity to disconnect from the outside world and find some rest in the tranquil Andean Mountains. Travelers can soak up some natural healing at the Cachueta Hot Springs if they wish for a luxury, organic spa experience. Or, take advantage of the simple pleasure of being in one of Earth’s most amazing natural parks and allow the fresh air and beautiful scenery to provide some healing.

La Juanita Casa de Comidas Most travelers will be spending their time in Aconcagua trekking and camping, eating the rations they prepared for the intense journey.
