Would you like to climb an awesome peak in the Andes? Then come to Mendoza for this guided ascent to Cerro San Bernardo, in the Cordon del Plata range!

Cordon del Plata is a sub-range of the Andes in the Province of Mendoza, Argentina. Cerro San Bernardo (4,150m) is one of its imposing peaks. Located about 80 km from Mendoza City, this colorful mountain receives thousands of mountaineers every year.
