Hiking
The walk to the Monumento al Ejército de Los Andes is an interesting experience that is both historically and scenically fascinating. The monument itself stands majestically on Cerro de la Gloria in Mendoza and tells of the important role of the Army of the Andes in the Argentine struggle for independence. The climb is relatively easy and the well-developed path takes you through General San Martín Park, a spacious recreational area. Alternatively, you can drive almost to the top by car, but the walk through the park is worth it if you have some time.
