Aconcagua in Argentina, at 6,961m (22,837ft), is South America’s highest mountain and one of the seven summits (the seven peaks that make up the highest point on every continent). The ascent takes around 14-18 days depending on the weather.
Aconcagua guide Directory
You can climb Aconcagua without a guide, but the vast majority of climbers do use guides. It significantly increases your chances of success. During my expedition, I met just three climbers who weren’t using guides. None of them summited. The following companies offer guided ascents of Aconcagua.
JAGGED GLOBE run up to six Aconcagua expeditions a season, starting from £5,195 for a 22-day land-only climb.
