Argentina: Outdoor Activities in Mendoza





Hiking in Potrerillos, Mendoza, Argentina.

Let me talk to you about Discover the Andes, it's a boutique outdoor activities company, based in Mendoza, who's owner is Pedro Rosell, a good friend of mine, whom I met while working at the Cavas Wine Lodge.

Discover the Andes targets a more upscale tourist, one that doesn't want to do outdoor activities in huge groups, having lunch in large crowds, etc. They aim the tourist that wants to have all the thrills and adventure as everyone else but in groups with no more than 6 pax, enjoy a nice gourmet picnic in an isolated place, have custom made tours designed specially for him with only the activities that he is really in the mood for. They offer everything that the Andes can offer, Hiking, trekking, white water rafting, horseback riding, rappel, canopy, etc, etc.

They also provide more extreme expeditions, like crossing the cordillera either by mountain bike, foot or horseback riding, or to remote and more unreachable spots in the region.

If you ever go to Mendoza, and you are in a mood for adventure in a more classy way... go with Discover the Andes.
