Aconcagua Tipi Camp

Simply sitting down and staring at the incredible mountain scenery around you is a perfectly acceptable way to spend some time here, but if you’d like to get out for a closer look there are numerous ways to do that. One of the easiest ways to do that is to join activities organised by the site’s staff – they’re able to organise things like guided hikes along hidden trails, history tours full of Andean stories and other experiences that will help you connect with this special place. Another easy option is to stroll along to Los Penitentes, a couple of minutes' walk away – it’s a popular ski resort in winter but in summer has options for horse riding, climbing, fishing and other outdoor adventures. Going it alone, you may like to take a trip to Puente del Inca (10 minutes' drive), a gorgeously colourful natural stone arch over the Las Cuevas river, hike through the wild scenery of Quebrada de Matienzo (20 minutes) or follow the trail to the sacred Christ the Redeemer of the Andes viewpoint (40 minutes).
