Tupungato Volcano
Tupungato Volcano
The Tupungato volcano climb gather all the conditions of a high mountain expedition of the central Andes: far away, cold, windy and with extreme altitude nights, but all of this only manages to further enhance this giant, making it an icon for reach.
Nestled in the heart of the central Andes, only its approach constitutes a great trip up to base camp, a place from where you can see the magnificence of mountains that surround this huge and silent extinct volcano.
After reaching the base camp, the ascent begins through trails that lead to the different high-altitude camps, sometimes full of snow, which give the ascent a unique scenic setting.
The summit day goes through slopes that progressively gain height, until reaching the ridge that leads to the highest point of this giant that dominates —with the exception of Aconcagua— of all the mountains that surround it.
