After a long 24 hour trip we arrived to ride in the town of Mendoza, Argentina located next to the Andes mountain range. Our host, Pato Marelli from BigTrailARG, had lined up some GasGas bikes from GasGas Palmares for the first part of our adventures around Mendoza.
Mendoza is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. The surrounding Andes provide ample opportunities for exploring. A popular destination is the Aconcagua Provincial Park, home to South America’s highest peak, Aconcagua, attracting climbers and trekkers from around the globe. The region also hosts various festivals throughout the year, celebrating everything from harvests to local traditions, adding a cultural richness that complements its natural beauty. Whether you’re a wine lover or an adventure seeker, Mendoza offers a diverse array of experiences that make it a must-visit destination in Argentina.
