1Laguna del Inca
The highlight of the day: Laguna del Inca, a stunning lagoon of deep turquoise-blue waters surrounded by snow-capped peaks, right next to the legendary Portillo ski resort. Your guide will tell you the legend of the Inca prince who laid his beloved princess to rest in its waters, which are said to have turned this unique color ever since. Enjoy free time to take in the views, take photos and enjoy a picnic with juice, fruit, cookies, wine and other snacks surrounded by the Andes. In winter, the lagoon is viewed from a lookout point and may be partially or completely frozen.

2Salto del Soldado
Our first scenic stop is Salto del Soldado, a narrow rocky gorge carved by the Aconcagua River. According to local legend, during Chile's fight for independence, a patriot soldier escaped from Spanish troops by leaping across the gorge, giving the place its name. Here you can admire the canyon, the rushing river below and the remains of the old Transandine Railway, while your guide shares the story behind this historic spot.
