ANDEAN·REACHANDEAN·REACH
Seven days of river, saddle, canyon and trail through San Rafael and Malargüe — the Cañón del Atuel, Valle Grande, and the ruins of El Sosneado — bookended each night by boutique lodges, asados by the river, and a bed that's already turned down. You carry a daypack. We carry the rest.
See the 7-Day Journey ↓"The Andes weren't made to be seen through a bus window. They were made to be climbed, ridden, forded and, at the end of it, toasted with a glass of Malbec that grew four hundred metres up the road."
Andean Reach designs multi-day journeys across the Cuyo foothills that move — on foot, by bike, on horseback, on whitewater — through a single continuous landscape, rather than a checklist of stops.
Every day ends somewhere that took as much care to choose as the trail did. You arrive tired in the good way. We take it from there.
An elevation profile, not a brochure grid — because the shape of the days is the point. From the Río Atuel to the ruins of El Sosneado, each stage below is a real day of movement, followed by a real bed.
Everything you need to decide, in one place — no digging through a PDF.
Unretouched, mid-journey — this is what the days actually look like.
No filler days. Each journey mixes rafting, packrafting or kayak, mountain biking, trekking, horseback and canyoning across genuinely different terrain — guided by locals who grew up on it, at a pace matched to your group.
Family-run lodges, bodega guesthouses and mountain refuges, each chosen on the ground and capped at a handful of rooms — so the welcome is personal on night one and night six alike.
Asado over quebracho coals, high-altitude Malbec, preserves from the same valley you rode through that morning. Meals are sourced, not catered.
Land at Mendoza (MDZ). A driver is already waiting with your name on the board.
Gear, guides, permits, transfers and every reservation are arranged before you arrive.
One contact, reachable throughout the trip, handles anything that changes along the way.
"We rode, hiked and rafted our way across four days and never once opened a map or a wallet. Every lodge felt like it had been chosen by a friend, not a booking engine."— J. & M. Ainsworth, London
