Mendoza

Mendoza stretches from the high Andes on Argentina’s frontier with Chile to the Desaguadero River basin, encompassing snowbound peaks, dry plains and irrigated oases. Near San Rafael, the Atuel River is central to the local landscape, supplying farmland and cutting through the rock formations of the Cañón del Atuel. Farther west, Aconcagua rises within the province and is the highest mountain in the Americas. Mendoza is internationally associated with wine, especially Malbec, produced in vineyards sustained by Andean meltwater. The province’s towns, orchards and broad roads reflect a life long adapted to an arid climate. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Mendoza.
