Program details

We will depart to live an unforgettable day of adventure in the Precordillera of Mendoza, Potrerillos Valley, where we will enjoy the open air and nature. During the morning there is one suggested half day activity: Rafting / Canopy / Trekking or Mountain Biking.


Activity Options (choose 2 - subject to seasonal weather conditions):

Rafting.

In Mendoza there are so many ways to be connected with the water of the Andes. We offer rafting trips throughout the year for the adventurer looking for difficulty class III+. All of the activities are upstream of Potrerillos Dam and Reservoir.


The trips are run by our river guides with international experience and swift water rescue certificates. Safety kayakers join the group for additional support. All paddlers will be equipped with life jackets (pfd), wetsuits, splash jackets, river booties and helmet.


Trekking with Rappel.

When you really want to learn about a place, to travel on foot is the best option. Whether you're trekking on the High Andes or lower foothills, hiking brings you close to the land. Full or half day trips introduce you to the native flora, fresh smell of “jarrilla” and incredible mountain views. The adventurers can enjoy rappelling near a waterfall.


Zipline.

Flying through the air suspended from a steel cable is a pure adrenaline experience, and the most exciting new extreme sport in Potrerillos. Zipline Circuits, Base and Adrenaline have been carefully designed, engineered constructed and inspected to maximize and ensure your safety.
Experience the rush and listen to the cable sing as we guide you over 1500 meters (5000 feet) on 6 different zipline cables, some over 40 meters (130 feet) above the Valley floor. Our longest cable stretches over 450 meters (1500 feet) crossing the Mendoza River.


Mountain bike .

Adventure is everywhere in the Potrerillos Valley and exploring the area on bike is a perfect escape. Enjoy biking on well-equipped mountain bikes through the desert back roads and trails of the Andes. Half day trips get you riding downhill and cross country with our guides, all year round.
