I had a great time. I felt supported by me guides every step of the way, the aconcagua mountain guides were very professional, patient and friendly. They made us laugh, walked us through the difficult parts, and taught us so much, how to walk and breath more efficiently, how to carry our gear properly and many more things. I learnt a lot and enjoyed the whole experience very much. Thank you guys!

I absolutely loved it. The trip was very well planned, and the Aconcagua guides were excellent, very professional and fun. The group became very closed and we all worked together. It was one of the best trips I have ever had. I highly recommend Aconcagua One for anyone wanting to climb Aconcagua.

We had an excellent experience. The quality of all services was excellent, we used brand new tents, food was awesome, the staff in base camp was very professional and easy going, guides were fun, skillful and ready to help, the porter service was very good, and the process of preparing for the climb was also very well organized. If I had to come back, I would absolutely choose Aconcagua One again.

Recommendations to climb Mount Aconcagua

Aconcagua climbing permit

During the last seasons, the price varied from USD 330 to USD 950, depending on the early purchase, date, and normal or 360 route, among other considerations. Personal documents are required in advance to get the permit on time. Particular prerequisites apply for minors in Mount Aconcagua.

Best time to climb Aconcagua

There’s no suitable time for the ascent because it will mainly depend on what kind of expedition we are looking for. If we want to maximize the chances of having good weather conditions, we should trek in the high season. Although there are almost no differences in many seasons, statistically, the high season has better weather conditions. If we prefer not to have a crowded climb and save some money, we should hike in the low season.

Aconcagua mountain guides

When choosing an Aconcagua guided climb, it’s essential to have legally certified guides by Aconcagua Park (UIAA mountain guides aren’t automatically approved in Mount Aconcagua). It’s also important to know how many mountain guides and the group size; we recommend a 1-3 guide-climber ratio and up to 12 climbers per trek.

Acclimatization treks

The longer, the better to increase the chances to reach the summit and have an enjoyable expedition. Nobody knows how our body will react to the high altitude in a trek. When climbing Aconcagua by 360 route or Vacas Valley, the hike takes more days to reach the base camp Plaza Argentina at 13500ft. The fasts itineraries are experienced climbers who don’t have much time, and they are available by the Normal route only. Our company organizes Aconcagua Ascents from five days in private and 12 days in openly scheduled departures.

There are extra acclimatization treks of 1-4 days that may be added to the regular treks, which will surely help many climbers.

Ascents with porters

There are significant differences in the porter services; some expeditions include a fixed quantity of porters, which generate there’s no guarantee what the climbers need to carry exactly. Most expeditions include porters to carry the tents and garbage only. Our full expeditions include porters to carry the tents, garbage, cooking equipment, oxygen tubes, ropes, fuel, first aid kit, toilet paper, among other elements, solid waste, and part of the meals, no matter how many porters are needed, they are included. The best expeditions like us also include domes in high altitude camps with backups of every equipment as we do. So the climbers mainly focus on carrying their personal equipment, or hire a personal porter to carry their personal equipment.

Money

Argentina is a country where government rules and financial regulations may change without notice. That’s why we recommend bringing some cash when traveling. For many years, ATMs deliver a small amount of local currency per day, so climbers may need money to tip the mountain guides at the end of the hike and some extra expenses in the city. We strongly recommend not trusting anyone who asks for cash payment in Argentina to avoid scams that ruin the expedition.
