ABOUT THE ROUTE
It all begins with a three day trekking through Valle de Vacas up to Plaza Argentina Base Camp contemplating the East Face of Aconcagua. After preparing everything we will start the ascent through the North Face of Aconcagua, ascending to Polish Route High Camps 1 and 2. Then we get the summit through the Polish Glacier.
