Aconcagua Plaza Francia + Plaza de Mulas 5-day trek

It is MANDATORY for foreigners to have rescue and evacuation insurance covering helicopter rescue. It is a formal requirement from Aconcagua Park in order to issue the trekking permit, and will also be asked when entering the Park. For a trusted recommendation, we advise exploring Global Rescue's offerings, because they have a direct collaboration with the company managing helicopter rescues in Aconcagua: https://partner.globalrescue.com/exploreshare/

We also recommend having travel and medical insurance to cover extra expenses in case of evacuation (medicine, medial exams, hospitalization, etc.).
