The region of Cuyo is world famous for its Malbec wines. The many winehouses and the beautiful landscapes are the main reasons of visiting the area, however the region has much more to offer.<\/p>\n

The region starts in the flat Pampa and then gradually rises to the high Andes mountains with volcanos and mountains rising up to almost 7.000 meters. The highest peak of the Americas can be found in Mendoza; it is the Aconcagua of 6.960 meters heigh. When travelling from Mendoza to Santiago de Chile you pass by the National Park of the Aconcagua and can enjoy beautiful views of the mountain range. Many take a day excursion to the Chilean border and back passing by the famous Bridge of the Inca and Christ statue at the frontier.<\/p>\n

The wine houses in the province of Mendoza offer many activities for the visitors; can you participate in the grape picking process, participate in a cooking class, cycle through the winefields, have a picnic in the middle of the beautiful fields, have lunch in their excellent restaurants and so on.

Besides the beautiful Andes mountains and the wine, the region also offers two gorgeous parks in the provinces of San Juan and La Rioja.
