Mendoza: Mountains, Cacheuta and Las Cuevas Guided Tour

Meet the guide at your hotel and then go on an early-morning drive toward the town of Cacheuta, which borders the Mendoza River. Take in an amazing view of the Cordón del Plata mountain range and the Potrerillos Dam, before continuing to Uspallata, a pre-Hispanic settlement of Huarpe people. Afterward, head to the villages of Picheuta, Polvaredas, and Punta de Vacas, and pass by the Los Penitentes ski resort. Next, check out Puente del Inca, a natural arch that crosses the Las Cuevas River, known for its hot springs. Then, arrive at the viewpoint of Cerro Aconcagua with your guide. Marvel at the panoramic view from a high altitude. Go to the town of Las Cuevas, a mountain village that sits on the border between Argentina and Chile. See the Swiss-style buildings here. After that, stop for lunch at a local restaurant. Following this, visit the Aconcagua Viewpoint. Enjoy the view of the Aconcagua Provincial Park, and access the Monument of Christ the Redeemer, depending on the season. Finally, drive back to your hotel to finish the trip.
