There is now a hotel up there and people go on trips and get tours of the mountains and about how the Andes mountains became famous. There are farms to see and you can get the train up to the mountain for some sight seeing.

1. The Andes, this backbone of South America, have a length of 7,600 km (4,800 mi), covering a surface of 2 million square km (800,000 square mi), and having an average height of about 4,000 m (13,000 ft). This is the longest terrestrial mountain range (longer chains are found on the bottom of the oceans).

2. The highest peak of the Andes is Aconcagua (6,962 m / 22,841 ft), in northwestern Argentina. This is the highest mountain in the Americas, and the highest mountain outside Asia, the highest peak in both the Western and Southern Hemispheres.

3. The Andes are made of several parallel chains that unite, from place to place, in orographic knots or depart one from another, forming high plateaus between them, 3,000-4,000 (10,000-13,300 ft) tall. Only in Tierra del Fuego, the Andes crumbles into a multitude of islands and islets.

4. The Andes were the home of one of the greatest civilization in the New World, the Inca Empire.

5. Andes are the result of the head-on collision between two tectonic plates, one (Nazca plate of the Pacific) being driven by subduction areas and buried underneath the South American plate into the Earth's mantle. The collision occurred 50 million years ago. South America is pushed westwards at a rate of 1.5 cm yearly by the mid-Atlantic ridge and at 160 km of its west shore it collides with the Nazca Plate, creating an oceanic trench 8 km deep.
