Laguna del Inca - We will begin a wonderful trip through the Intermediate Depression of our country from your hotel at approximately 06:40 am (remember that this value is in regular service shared with more tourists) taking the General San Martin highway that will take us to the border with Argentina, We have a technical stop at a service station, bathrooms, coffee, water etc.
We will arrive at the MONACENTO DE CHACABUCO, where one of the battles for the Independence of Chile took place (1817). Then we will cross a mountain range called Cordón de Chacabuco through a tunnel of approximately 2 km and that serves as a regional limit, to find the beautiful view of Mount Aconcagua (the highest in the southern hemisphere) with its 6,959 meters high. We will also tell you about our first Santa from Chile, Santa Teresa de los Andes that its Sanctuary is Nearby. Later, we will find the old Trasandino Railroad line (1910) that worked between the city of the Andes and unites with the City of Mendoza (Argentina) nowadays only works on the Chilean side as a mining freight train.
When passing through Rio Blanco we will see small towns, mining camps, glaciers and the imposing mountains. We will begin to climb 29 curves and see how the man built some sheds to prevent the avalanches that occur in the winter season continuing to reach the center of Ski Portillo (headquarters of the World Ski Championship in 1966) located at 3,000 meters high and a few more kilometers the international step LOS LIBERTADORES is one of the steps between the most winding mountains in the world and an adventure between deserted mountains of veguetacion.

Created for a minimum group of 2 people per booking. A private and customised Journey. We’ll voyage to areas abundant with scenic landscapes, towering snow-capped mountains and vineyard-laden fields with attractive horses pacing through them. A majestic Condor might cross our path displaying its grandeur. Our route is sprinkled with the gushing waters of the Aconcagua river, accompanying us as we navigate the mountain; the other side of the river boasts a train track that once heralded passengers to Mendoza, Argentina and is now solely dedicated as a freight train for Copper. As we ascend the steep slope of Los Caracoles, amid lorry traffic from Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay, we reach the peak, where the picturesque Laguna del Inca awaits- imposing, majestic and brilliantly coloured. But first, we’ll stop at the border for some stunning photo opportunities of the region.
