Exceptional hike with Christina and Mathias… We cannot thank them enough for guiding us today, for providing us poles and sharing warm clothes.. It’s started raining and Cristina gave her rain jacket to us, while walking herself soaking wet in a sweatshirt.. and she was very non chalan about it…
The hike was not easy, high elevation and it was pretty cold in the mountains…
I would recommend using hiking boots and brining warm clothes even in the summer..
Thank you Christina and Mathias you are wonderful..
it was a beautiful hike , with amazing views, and we enjoyed every minute of it… Elena and Vita

We had an amazing time with this tour group. Pablo let the tour and was the perfect tour guide. His English was great, and he shared a lot of knowledge about the area and the mountains with us. More importantly he did a great job handling our group. We were with a very talented and fit mountain climber that zoomed around the mountains, meanwhile my wife and I found the hike much more challenging. Pablo did a great job balancing things, giving our hiking partner and more advanced hills to climb but also staying with us to make sure we were doing ok. He also took great photos! A+ for organization, knowledge and support - don’t hesitate to use great tour company.

My husband and I loved this hike and experience. The drive out along the mountains and to the trailhead was beautiful, and our guide had poles for us to use. We went in the middle of May and started our hike with snow on the ground. I wore a base, 2 mids and an outer shell while my husband wore just 1 mid and shed it in the middle of the hike. I'd recommend gloves and a hat to help with the chill as well, although the snow had melted by the time we descended. We are in our 30's, pretty fit, and would call our experience mostly intermediate with parts that were hard. Our guide was fantastic and lead us to the summit of both Loma Blanca and C'Arenales. The last half hour or so up and back down from the summit of Loma Blanca was very steep and rocky. Make sure to wear hiking boots or shoes as grip is important. At the summit we sat for 10-15 mins to eat whatever lunch everyone had brought and rest before heading down and then back up to the second summit.
I'd absolutely recommend this hike and company to anyone who can handle 5-6 hours of almost constant hiking, with some pretty steep and rocky terrain. It was such a gorgeous day in the Andes and something we will absolutely do again if we ever make it back down to Mendoza.

We has a great trek with Mattias as our guide. We did three progressive mountain summits (Andresito, Arenales and Loma Blanca ).
Mattias was knowledgeable and relaxed and we managed to spot a group of wild Vicuñas and a few Condors.
Highly recommend if you love a solid hike

Cette expérience est un incontournable pour les touristes visitant Mendoza. Notre guide Paolo était qualifié, à l’écoute et dynamique. Il connaissait bien le terrain et les environs. Nous avons discuté longuement avec lui et sommes très heureux de notre expédition. Sans guide, nous n’aurions jamais pu vivre quelque chose de cette envergure. L’expédition était de niveau élevé, il y a beaucoup de dénivelé. Nous avons tous pu réaliser la randonnée sans trop d’embûches, mais il faut être conscient que c’est un effort soutenu pendant plusieurs heures. Nous recommandons vivement.
This experience is a must for tourists visiting Mendoza. Our guide Paolo was qualified, attentive and dynamic. He knew the terrain and surroundings well. We had long chats with him and are very happy with our expedition. Without a guide, we would never have been able to experience something of this magnitude. Keep in mind that this expedition is demanding, there is a lot of elevation. We were all able to complete the hike without too much difficulty, even if two of our group didn’t have the right shoes nor a lot trekking experience, but you have to be aware that it is a sustained effort for several hours. We highly recommend.
