We begin our exciting High Mountain Road tour from Mendoza, picking up participants from their hotels between 7:30 and 8:00 am. Our sightseeing tour begins along the famous National Route No. 7.
The first stop, after passing through the tunnel in the town of Cacheuta, takes us to the impressive Potrerillos Reservoir located in the Andes Mountains, a place of unforgettable scenic beauty, where you'll have the opportunity to take the best photos with the Altas Cumbres in the background.
We continue our journey upriver, entering the mountain town of Uspallata. This historic site was the site of the Huarpe Indigenous occupation in pre-Hispanic times and marks the transition between the foothills and the Front Range. We'll stop for breakfast in Uspallata and then continue our tour through a mountainous landscape that includes the charming villages of Picheuta, Polvaredas, and Punta de Vacas, as well as the former Los Penitentes ski resort.
Continuing our group tour, we'll find the iconic Puente del Inca, a natural monument of astonishing geological beauty, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Kilometers further on, you'll find the viewpoint of Mount Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the Americas after the Himalayas.
The high mountain tour culminates on the border with Chile, in Las Cuevas, a charming town built in a distinct European style. Here we'll enjoy a delicious Mendoza lunch in a typical mountain restaurant.
