The Approach to Base Camp “Plaza Argentina”

It is a unique experience to climb Aconcagua! I went on this adventure for 15 days in January 2019 with a great team of people. Together we hiked through long valleys, rough snowstorms and surreal landscapes towards the roof of South America. In a series of four articles I want to tell you the exciting story of this ascent, give you useful information and a feeling if climbing Aconcagua is something for you. Part 1 is about the three-day approach to the Base Camp Plaza Argentina.

Our Adventure on the Fire Mountain

Climbing Merapi is an incredible experience. It is allowed to hike Merapi without a guide and it can be done by anybody with basic fitness. The true summit is a little more difficult, be careful! If you are traveling around Java you should definitely go on a sunrise hike of Merapi. It was one of the greatest things we did in Inonesia!

Climbing the Sleeping Lady

During our first high altitude experience, we battled cold and technical conditions with little equipment, felt the rush of going to our limits and our British friends almost froze to death. Iztaccihuatl is an excellent option for your first 5000m climb and is a fascinting mountain.
