Aconcagua Park entrance permit: To enter Aconcagua Provincial Park it is essential to acquire a climbing permit. The price of the permit varies according to the season in which you enter the park (low, medium, high) and its cost is not included in the price of the expedition. Please contact our staff to know the current price according to the starting date of your expedition.
Transfer mendoza / puquios / mendoza: The transfer from the city of Mendoza to Puquios at the beginning of the trekking, as well as the return to the city of Mendoza at the end of the trekking, are not included in this program. However, if you want us to arrange your transfer, do not forget to let us know. This service has an extra cost.
Extras and beverages not mentioned in the itinerary: Those extra expenses, such as meals or beverages consumed other than those specified in the program are not included and must be paid by you.
Expenses originated by the abandonment of the planned itinerary: the itinerary is quoted with group services in order to have more and better services at a lower cost. When you abandon the itinerary for any reason (personal reasons, illness, among others), you start to have private and individual services. The extra expenses that you will have to bear are: mules or saddle mules in case you need them (a mule from Confluencia to Puquios has an approximate cost of U$D 120.-), transportation from Puquios to Mendoza city, etc. In case you are evacuated by helicopter, generally your cargo will be lowered with mules later. You will have to pay for this mule and if you do not stay in Puente del Inca to wait for the equipment you will also have to pay for the transportation of the equipment to Mendoza. Each person participating in the expedition is responsible for his or her personal equipment.
Sleeping bag and other personal equipment: Both the technical equipment and the mountain equipment that you will need during the trekking are not considered as included services, therefore you are responsible for them. Our company has guides who can advise you at the moment of selecting the material to buy or rent. In case of renting equipment, you will be responsible for it, and for returning it to the rental store at the agreed time.
Personal insurance: Personal insurance is not a fundamental requirement for this trekking. In any case, if you wish to get one taking into account the risks of the mountain, we advise you to consult an insurance company, since our company is not able to help you with this procedure.
Baggage problems (lost or delayed flight). If your baggage is lost during your flight, or arrives on a late flight, you will need to resolve this with the corresponding airline.
