5. Hiking
• The Aconcagua is the highest peak
in America and the Western Hemisphere
(6,959.6 meters over the sea) is located near the
capital city. Because of this, an important
number of mountain climbers arrive to this city
each year, and provide a market on its own.
Note that during low season, tourists are allowed
to take only a short hike. High season begins on
November 15th. The surrounding scenery is well
worth the drive, even if outdoor activities (with
the exception of white-water rafting) are not well
developed.

of Malargue, Las
Leñas is the most
important ski
resort in Argentina.

12. Enviroment
Protection
The Effects of Climate Change in Mendoza
Experts from Germany and Argentina work together with the objective of facing climate
change and environmental protection. In Mendoza’s territory, the emission of toxic
gasses and open dumps are some of the factors which increase contamination. To raise
awareness in the population and make them participate, they carry out a Project which
has children as its main addressee.
The total number of cars in Mendoza is another contaminating factor, as every year it is
bigger and emits more and more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Together with the
industry, they cause a great emission of particles. “There is also heat island effect; if one
looks at the city from far away it can be seen a dark layer above, under which the city is
much more hot, there are higher temperatures and it produces discomfort in the people”,
describes the specialist.
13. • Open dumps constitute another problematic factor, as “in the
province, almost all of them are open, many times they are
burnt and not only emit carbon dioxide, but also very toxic
gasses. When the 60% of the residues, organic matter, starts
to decompose, it emits methane; this is generated when the
residues are decomposed without oxygen, because they are
covered and it is 21 times more severe than carbon dioxide”.
• The expert makes reference to the effect of Mendoza’s
agriculture: “The annual average of temperatures will in
general increase, then, winters will shorten. This will have an
impact in agriculture, because the increase of humidity in the
prairie, combined with the increase of the temperature can
generate more severe storms and more hail. Grape growing
and wine production will have more humidity and then more
diseases; reason why many investors are taking the grapes to
higher places”.
14. Contamination by mining exploitation
There exist two main cases related to uranium minerals exploitation in charge of
Atomic Energy National Commission. The first one is given by inadequate facilities
abandonment where 500,000 tn of mineral tales are arranged (Malargüe) and the
second one related to an open sky mine exploitation (the main in the country)
(Sierra Pintada). The Directorate has officially carried out auditings in both cases
and technically advised to adequately dispose in the first case and to carry caution
measures to an extreme in the second one. Conflicts occurring have produced as
a consequence a new exploitation covenant, after which there is progress in both
senses. This includes more strict control mechanisms, sanitation project
elaboration in Malargüe, and initiation of the first stage of Environmental Impact
Study in Sierra Pintada by means of an international advisory office, with a very
vast experience in the subject matter, and selected by both parties. Other cases
involve new mining exploitations such as potassium salts (also in Malargüe and
perhaps the main mining project in the country), which must subject to
environmental impact evaluation. So far, mechanics adopted in both types of
cases have produced positive results.

‘Pharmacia’ sign.
17. Public Hospitals &
Clinics
• Public healthcare here is of good standard and with some great
doctors but, as aforementioned, healthcare in Argentina is free. This
means that the hospitals are full with patients of almost every other
neighboring country in South America. And lines are long. If you
need emergency medical attention, you will go almost directly to the
front of the line, but if your problem is less urgent you need to get to
the hospital early to take a ‘turno’ (or number in the line), not unlike
public healthcare in the U.S. Most hospitals start issuing turnos at
8am, but don’t come anytime after 8:00 a.m. People start arriving at
6:30 a.m., so to get anywhere decent in the line, you need to get
there early too. If you miss your slot, you’ll have to wait until the next
day, so wear comfy shoes and don’t forget to bring a book.a public
hospital por example is: Hospital Central, Alem 410; Hospital
Lagomaggiore, Gordillo.

techniques (tecnicas de riego )that capture the snow melt run off from the Andes
Mountains. This irrigation techniques were created by the Indians (Huarpes)
people, and this system is controled by computerized drip (goteo) irrigation,
which allows Argentina to be one of the top wine-producing countries in the
