We will meet in Mendoza to move to Tunuyán. We will register and to continue until the entrance to the Arenales caisson where we will have a well-deserved picnic lunch before continuing to the camping area at the base of the Punta Negra hill. We will set up our camp and have the rest of the afternoon to rest and prepare for the next day.
On the second day, after breakfast, we will begin the trekking by riding on the ridge from the West. We will advance at a calm pace, enjoying the increasingly open landscape. After reaching the summit from where we will have a beautiful view of the surrounding mountain range and Paso Portillo, we will take the opportunity to have lunch and return to the base. Once there we will dismantle the camp and prepare to return to Mendoza. End of services.
