Don Mercedario has been on business for the last 8 years, providing hosting services to private expeditions and organizing climbing tours to Mercedario, Aconcagua and other important mountains of the Central Andeans.

The company was born in response to many climbers from different places of the world which wanted to visit Ramada Range and Mercedario Peak and did not have the necessary local infrastructure and information to accomplish their expeditions. With this purpose, Anibal Maturano (Don Mercedario´s director) started providing transportation and load transfers to different Base Camps in 1998.

Don Mercedario grew rapidly and in the year 1999 we successfully ran our first guided tour to Mercedario Normal Route. Since then, the company has earned a deserved reputation as the best local oparators, advising climbers about all the potential of the region, giving reliable information about routes, access, logistic, local weather and running outstanding tours in the area.

At the present time, and even when we specialize on Mercedario, we also operate in Aconcagua and other Andeans Peaks like those from Ramada and Ansilta ranges and the volcanos in Catamarca and La Rioja province.

Some of our clients are very important international and local mountaineering companies. Our guides and staff are outstanding expert local climbers, which main goal is to help people to safely achieve their trips and enjoy the amazing scenaries of the Central Andeans.
