About this experience

Escape the city and discover one of Mendoza’s most rewarding adventures — a hike with epic views of the Andes and Lake Potrerillos, combined with the rare chance to relax in natural hot springs. Unlike standard big-bus tours, I keep private groups small (maximum 6 people), so everything feels personal, flexible, and unhurried. The route is not so much difficult as it is just long (5-6h), and most people with basic fitness can manage it well. Along the way there are a few short sections of easy climbing, which most travelers find fun. If you prefer something lighter, we can shorten the route to the first viewpoint — already a beautiful spot, making the total hike about 3-4 hours instead of 6.

Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Mendoza.

How much does Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs cost?

+

Prices start at $99 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Mendoza usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs take?

+

Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Mendoza is not rushed.

Is Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Mendoza, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 10-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs?

+

Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Mendoza can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Mendoza and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Hiking in the Mountains of Mendoza | Epic Views & Hot Springs start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Mendoza within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Mendoza?

+

On Outty we rank every Mendoza experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include High Mountain, Aconcagua and Inca Bridge, All Day, Small Group, Luxury Wine Tour with Gourmet Lunch, Andes High Mountain full day Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Mendoza?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Mendoza?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
