These values are only the guide’s fee in private service, which includes the guide’s services, training, and the use of ropes and protection elements during the climb (such as mobile protection on rock, snow, or ice; belays, anchors, etc.).
- The days required are counted from the day the guide departs to the meeting point.
- It is your responsibility to provide adequate personal mountaineering equipment, although this can also be rented.
CLIENT LIMIT PER GUIDE
The maximum number of clients per guide will depend on the difficulty of the itinerary, the commitment of the route, and the technical level of the clients. Not to exceed:
1 guide per 2 clients.
Here we find climbs like the south face of Cerro Arenas, the Parinacota and Puntiagudo volcanoes, Monte San Lorenzo, or Cerro Morado.
1 guide per 4 clients.
Here we find climbs like the normal routes of Nevado Ojos del Salado, Cerro Marmolejo, Volcán San José or Cerro el Plomo, and also some volcanoes like Llaima, Lanin, Mocho Choshuenco!
A ratio of 1:6 in high mountains is possible when the clients are able to climb by themselves: they are able to lead the complete route and the way back without the direct work of the guide. For these cases the role of the mountain guide is a technical director, supervising the performance of the climbers and as a local link for the logistic of the expedition.
A ratio of 1:6 is possible when the use of a rope on the route is not necessary; if a rope is needed, the ratio is 1:2.
A ratio of 1:4 applies.
Like the routes in Cochamó and multi-pitch rock climbing, a maximum of 2 clients per 1 guide; for sport climbing up to one rope length, up to 6 clients per guide (for example in the Metri area, Carretera Austral).
