TREK ACONCAGUA

Trekking Aconcagua and trekking in general requires cardiovascular endurance (via aerobic training), strength endurance (through strength conditioning), and hiking-specific training (via hiking with a pack). Being in strong physical shape is one of the most important aspects for success on a high altitude trek. During your training, you should be planning to progressively ramp up your speed, duration (time or mileage), and pack weight of weekly training hikes to give you hiking-specific conditioning that cannot be matched by any other sort of training. Daily training is an important part of preparation coupled with longer hikes on weekends. Please feel free to contact our office for further assistance in preparing for your trek.
