Description

Are you looking for a thrilling outdoor adventure in Argentina? Then join me for this 2-day trek to the summit of Mount Champaqui. Don’t miss your chance!

Mount Champaqui (2884 m) is a mountain in western Argentina. Its name, in an indigenous dialect, means “water in the head” and refers to a lake located near its top. Part of the Sierras Grandes range, this mount is the highest peak in the province of Cordoba.

On this program, we will meet in Cordoba City and after a 3-hour transfer we will be at the starting point of our trek. Our 2-day hike to the summit of Champaqui is not technically difficult but requires a good fitness level. We will walk 36km with 1800m of elevation gain. At the top, you will be rewarded with panoramic views of the Pampas! In addition, we will spend one night at a charming mountain hut or a family house where we will have the chance to taste delicious local food!

So, if you want to reach the highest point in Cordoba, please get in touch with me. Let’s enjoy an amazing hiking adventure in Argentina!

I also offer outdoor adventures in Mendoza. Take a look, for example, at my Trekking to “Confluencia” Base Camp.

Alpine Guide

I was born in Córdoba, Argentina, where I was able to venture into mountaineering more than ten years ago. I took my first steps in the Sierras de Córdoba, and from there, I set out to explore higher mountains.
Five years ago, I achieved my dreams when I came to Mendoza to become a professional mountain guide and earn a living doing what I love. Two years from now, we created our own adventure tourism company in Mendoza.
For the last 3 years, I have been working in a foundation, as an instructor in first aid and rescue in wild areas, training government agencies, guides, etc. I have made Advanced emergency medical technician in Buenos Aires, with real ambulance hours.

Join me in one of my programs and discover the Andes with me.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
