Surrounded by the Andean foothills, Cerro de la Cruz offers a scenic hiking route in Uspallata. The short but sometimes steep trail leads travelers through brownish ridges and scattered vegetation until reaching the summit, where a tall cross stands as a local landmark. This vantage point reveals an impressive panorama of the valley below and the peaks beyond, capturing the stark beauty of Mendoza’s high country. The climb usually takes around one to two hours, so pack sufficient water, wear sturdy shoes, and consider early-morning hikes to avoid midday heat. Don’t miss the sweeping sunsets that bathe the landscape in warm hues.
