MOUNT TUPUNGATO BY CHILE

On the Chile-Argentina border, Mount Tupungato by Chile reaches an altitude of 6570m with the typical majesty of all volcanoes. This peak, which is quite wild and less coveted than others, offers countless possibilities to all those mountain climbers in search of beautiful challenges off the beaten tracks. By its normal route (dry) or by its southern face (glacier), this volcano offers a variety of views that make for eternal memories. The approach walks, as well as the climb itself, make Mount Tupungato (on the Chilean side) one of the most beautiful treks of the Central Mountain Range. All the ingredients of the great expeditions are present… As for the Aconcagua program, we recommend a previous acclimatization climb to Mount Plomo (5430m).

Gratitud por el gran servicio de la empresa Andesport Expeditions en nuestro ascenso al Aconcagua Una experiencia muy placentera en la montaña más alta de América, la empresa de Andesport Expeditions nos ayudó con toda la logística en la montaña, muy puntuales, la comida deliciosa en Plaza de Mulas, los chicos quienes trabajan en la empresa son grandes seres humanos por lo que regresamos muy contentos y satisfechos con nuestra experiencia en el Aconcagua y seguro que pronto regresaremos.

Aconcagua en solitario. Cuando se trata de aventura, si se hace en solitario es muy memorable; sin embargo, siempre es necesario de un apoyo logístico y mas cuando se trata de subir el Aconcagua. Con Andesport conté con todo el apoyo siempre en mi expedición. Buenas memorias de la montaña mas grande de América.

Die beste Erfahrung mit dem besten Vater-und Sohn-Team! Jedem der vorhat den Aconcagua auf eigene Faust zu besteigen, jedoch auf Gepäcktransport durch Mulis bis zum Basecamp und 1-2 Tage hervorragende Verpflegung nicht verzichten möchte, sei der Service von Andesport Expeditions wärmstens empfohlen. Die Planung und Organisation durch Tomas und David war von Anfang bis Ende perfekt. Man merkt sofort, dass Vater und Sohn das tun was sie lieben! Von der Beschaffung des Permit und Transport zum Startpunkt, bis zur Abholung nach erfolgreicher Rückkehr. Auch nach dem Trip standen sie uns noch mit Tipps und Hilfe zur Seite. Der organisierte Transport unseres Gepäcks durch die muleteers hat bestens geklappt und jedes Teil war vor unserer Ankunft im jeweiligen Lager. Auch die Unterkunft und Verpflegung im Basecamp war nicht nur besser als erwartet sondern auch herzlich und familiär. In einem Satz: Man bekommt mehr von allem!

Aconcagua January 2023 Traverse We were a team of three climbers from Colorado that completed the Polish Glacier Traverse route. During our planning I reached out to several Aconcagua operators and found Tomas and Andesport to be the most responsive. We hired Andesport for logistics support during the expedition, including providing mules. Tomas met us at the airport upon our arrival and assisted with equipment and food purchases prior to our departure. His team pruchased our permits in advance so that we could take advantage of the discounts. Their mule team and support personal at both Plaza Argentina and Plaza de Mules were outstanding. I highly recommend them to any team that is looking for top notch logistics support on the mountain.

Great Family Owned Business My climbing partner and I hired Andesport as logistics support for Aconcagua and we were very pleased with their services. In town Tomas did and amazing job of taking us to exchange money, find the supplies that we hadn’t brought and still needed, and he even gave some excellent restaurant recommendations and connected us with great in city tourism after our climb. Prior to our trip, the entire company provided prompt feedback for any and all questions we had and helped us get our permits. (As someone who has obtained permits on their own, I can say, this service was so great and saved so much time.) When our bags were delayed and my partner needed to return early, they assisted with the necessary accommodations without complaint. Andesport provided transportation to the mountain, coordinated mules, pickup after our climb, meals at base camp, and all the things that allowed us to focus on the climb and made our expedition easier. We can’t thank them enough! Highly recommend Andesport for your Aconcagua expedition!

Logistics for solo climbing on Aconcagua Andes Expeditions supported me logistically in my solo attempt to reach Aconcagua. From obtaining permits, to airport pickup, accommodation in Mendoza, to transportation to the national park, mules and staying at base camps. Everything was exactly as described. I highly recommend. David and thomas are very communicative and helpful. They are trustworthy.
