from santiago if you go on the pass to mendoza, there is a point near el portillo ski area from which you can see aconcangua, the highest peak in the andes. i'm not exactly sure where this point is but i can't imagine it would be more than an hour's hike.

you can see Aconcagua from the road which goes from Santiago to Mendoza ( about 6 hours in bus ); from Mendoza to Aconcagua park is about 2 hours in bus and you can hike a little more in the park; we went from Mendoza by regular bus in the morning and went back at the end of the day, but there is a hotel near Puente del inca you can stay or in Penitentes ski center.Perhaps you could find some kind of tour from Santiago to these places.
