Description

At 5240 m, Cerro Gemelos is one of several peaks joined by a sharp ridge in the Chilean and Argentinean Andes. On this 4-day ascent, we will approach it from the Chilean side.

We will begin and end the tour in Santiago de Chile. From there, we will access Gemelos via the cajón de Navarro canyon, which provides easy access due to the old trails that were used by plaster manufacturers in the region. We will find stunning seracs and glaciated terrain on the way to the summit and enjoy truly stunning Andean views.

In order to join this program, you must have prior mountaineering experience and an excellent fitness level. It involves technical climbing skills and is not for beginners. You will have personalized guiding every step of the way and we will enjoy the wonderful rewards that Gemelos has for climbers when we reach its top.

Contact me today to begin organizing this wild and wonderful adventure in the Chilean Andes. I look forward to guiding you!

Aspirant Guide

I am an aspirant IFMGA mountain guide, with extensive experience in Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, Perú and Ecuador.

I used to live in Cajón del Maipo, and now I live in Coyhaique, south Chile.

I do a lot of guiding in South America´s High Mountain, especially on technical routes. I also do rock climbing courses in different parts of Chile and in my city.

During my tours, I try to generate the best experience for my clients, and like to teach them about the cultural and environmental importance of the places we visit.
