One of the most iconic destinations is ACONCAGUA, the highest peak in the Americas, which is located about 180 km northwest of Mendoza.

Just over an hour from Mendoza, THE UCO VALLEY (approximately 120 km) stands out as one of the main wine centers of the region. In this valley, surrounded by the majesty of the Andes mountain range, are some of the most prestigious wineries in Argentina, such as Salentein, Catena Zapata and La Azul. Here you can enjoy tours of the vineyards, tastings of the best wines of the area and the opportunity to learn about the winemaking process in one of the most picturesque landscapes in the country.
