In 1997 Paul Coudenys and Chilean Andinist Marcos, were the first to open this historic path for tourism. They are the pioneers of all riding expeditions in the Andes. Paul will be your trip leader during this expedition. Be aware that this is not just another trail ride; this is THE expedition all Chileans and Argentineans know as the “Crossing of the Andes Expedition of General San Martin”! A little bit of history: In 1817, José San Martin led a 5.000-strong army of riders from Argentina in a 20-day march to invade Chile. 2.000 men did not survive the expedition due to illness and inadequate protection from the cold. With the remaining 3.000 soldiers, the liberation army surprised the Spanish troops. The result in the subsequent battle was a victory for the liberation forces of San Martin.
Welcome to ride in the footsteps of the Liberation Army of San Martin!
