El Plomo 6070m

A high and remote peak on the border between Chile and Argentina just south of Aconcagua. Don't confuse with the lower, much more accessible and very frequently climbed peak of del Plomo near Santiago.

El Plomo

The Argentine side of El Plomo from the northeast.

We have run trips to peaks in this area  in the past and can easily do so again. For details of how to climb El Plomo, Juncal, Mesa, Mercedario, Aconcagua etc., please see our guidebooks, which are available in English, Spanish, Polish and French editions, direct from us or from all good bookshops and mountaineering shops.
