Located on the border of Chile and Argentina, Aconcagua stands at the centre of an arid desert. It is here one can witness breathtaking views across the Andes, eastward to the Argentine Plain, and westward to the city of Santiago, Chile. At 22,830 ft, Aconcagua is the highest mountain in the Western and Southern Hemispheres and the highest in the world that can be climbed by individuals without technical experience.
