**If you are looking for a challenging ascent in South America, this trip is for you!** Join me and reach the summit of the Olivares Central (6200m), **one of the most beautiful and unexplored mountains of the Central Andes!**

Located in San Juan Province, near the town of Rodeo, **the Olivares Central is also known as Cumbre de la Majadita**. This Argentinian peak was **one of the last over-6000m peaks in the Andes to be climbed** (1965), and its very popular among courageous mountaineers.

On this 9-day trip **we will cross some beautiful glaciers** and enjoy a real alpine experience. Furthermore, we will revel in the **panoramic views of the Andes**, the longest continental mountain range in the world!

Although this is not a technically hard ascent, **you do need a good fitness level! Of course, I will be there to help and guide you.** 

**So, if you are up for an amazing mountaineering tour away from the crowds, please get in touch with me. Let’s get to the top of the Olivares Central, in San Juan, Argentina!**
