Excursions
A journey along the legendary National Route 7, amidst Andean landscapes, history, and natural wonders.
With Claudio Tours Mendoza, we invite you to discover one of the province's most impressive routes: National Route 7 toward the mountain range, a journey that combines nature, history, culture, and excitement with every kilometer.
High Mountain Excursion
Cacheuta
First stop. This charming mountain spot is famous for its hot springs and mountain scenery. It's ideal for relaxing or simply enjoying the views of the Mendoza River surrounded by vegetation. You can also visit the old railway tunnel and the hanging footbridge.
Potrerillos
A natural paradise just a few kilometers away. We visit the impressive Potrerillos Dam, where the mirror-like lake reflects the snow-capped peaks. Here you can take incredible photos, breathe fresh air, and enjoy the silence of the Andean foothills. Optional activities include kayaking, rafting, or gentle hiking.
Uspallata
An enchanted valley between mountains, steeped in history and unique landscapes. This picturesque town was a key crossing point for the Andes and preserves traces of the Liberation Army's passage. Free time to explore, sample regional products, or simply enjoy a cup of coffee overlooking the mountain range.
Inca Bridge
A natural and geological wonder. This bridge-shaped rock formation over the Las Cuevas River, tinged with minerals from the hot springs, looks like something from another planet. You can also explore the ruins of the old thermal hotel and take spectacular photos.
Penitents
A ski resort with a mountain landscape par excellence. Although the snow season varies, its slopes always offer breathtaking views. Depending on the season, you can ascend by chairlift or simply hike among the hills.
Aconcagua Provincial Park
The icing on the cake of the trip. We entered the park where Mount Aconcagua, the colossus of the Americas at 6,960 meters above sea level, is located. We took a short, accessible hike to the Horcones Lagoon Viewpoint, the perfect place to see the mountain in all its grandeur. An unforgettable experience surrounded by nature.
