The Government of Mendoza has implemented a new regulatory model for tourism services within Aconcagua Provincial Park. Following a competitive bidding process led by the Ministry of Energy and Environment, eleven providers were selected to manage essential support services.

The concessions cover accommodation, gastronomy, sanitation, communications, cargo logistics, and authorized guides at key locations such as Plaza de Mulas, Plaza Argentina, Confluencia, Pampa de Leñas, and Casa de Piedra. This initiative aims to replace precarious permits with a structured system that uses zoning to manage carrying capacities and balance service development with environmental conservation.
