Conditions on the mountain tend to be very dry due to the influence of the nearby Atacama Desert. Despite this, it can snow at any time and it can be very windy on the day of the summit attempt.

Ojos del Salado is a little technical mountain, but it requires great physical demand due to the height.

Argentina Trails stands out for having more than 17 years of experience operating expeditions on this mountain and others around the region, where our qualified and certified guides will offer you a high quality experience, providing security and support.

We prioritize the safety of our clients, so we count with experience and the best infrastructure, first aid kits, satellite communication systems and mountain equipment suited to the requirements of each expedition. We take care of every detail so that you can make the most of each expedition safely.
