This urban center is about 2000 m above sea level and is the provincial reference site for all those who have a passion for pleasure trips in the mountains. Uspallata is in a vale between the mountains and piedmont of the Andean String. For this reason, it is normally the place mount climbers who aspire to climb one of the most important mounts of Cuyo go, the Aconcagua, or Overo volcano. It was at this same localization where the film Seven Years in Tibet was shot, leading Brad Pitt, and set in the Himalayas. The town of Uspallata provides many options for touristry in Cuyo. Some kilometers away is Mount Aconcagua Provincial Park, which attempts to keep this iconic mountain. Inside this national park you can visit the Inca Bridge, a fantastic rock formation located 27 m above the river Las Cuevas. In this townsfolk it is possible to visit a remarkable hot spring, and the captivating scenery, filled with fantastic colours that the inorganic composition of stones is contributing for adorning. The Caves is another amusing place, merely eighty eight kilometres from Uspallata, which houses marvelous treasures for the tourist to discover. One of these locations of interest is the monument to Christ the Redeemer. This monument, simbolizing a big Christ giving his blessing while holding a cross on his right hand, was built in 1904 to remember the brotherhood between Argentina and Chile. From here, a few kilometers, it is possible to get at the Cristo Redentor tunnel, located about 3200 meters above sea level, and is one of the key routes between Argentina and Chile. In the small town of Las Cuevas, it is possible to find a exquisite settlement with little houses made in Nordic and Scandinavian style, made of wood and rock. In the River Caves, you can practice rafting and kayaking. Here also rests the international train corridor that joins Argentina with Chile. In the region holidaymakers can visit the glacier of the Lame Man and practise trekking and rappelling. This is decidedly one of the most enchanting alternatives of touristry in Cuyo for adventure sports devotees and for those who enjoy mountain activities. Simply ask the staff of the Diplomatic Hotel and they will arrange the most exciting excursions in the paradisiacal province of Mendoza to places that cannot be omitted.
