After meeting in Fiamablá, we will travel to the lodge in Cortaderas (3300mts), in the Seismiles's Valey. On the second day, after a delicious breakfast in this place, we will travel to Paso San Francisco, which establishes the border with Chile. This place will be the base for the climbs that await us: Falso Morocho (4500mts), Bertran Volcano (5260mts), San Francisco Volcano (6016mts). These climbs will allow us to adapt to the altitude, which, added to delicious meals and time for the necessary rest, will prepare us for the main objective. The days on the Inchahuasi Volcano (6638mts) will be scheduled with progressive ascents and an attempt to reach the summit on the 11th. Once there, depending on the time and the weather, we will take the well-deserved photos and enjoy the view of the nearby volcanoes, with the Ojos del Salado in the foreground. We will return to the camp at Las Grutas, dismantle it and travel to Fiambalá to end our services and the expedition. Keep in mind that an extra day will be added to be used in case of bad weather. If this is not the case, the expedition will end on the 11th day.
