Cerro Tronador (Refugio Otto Meiling)

This two-day Patagonia hike leads to Refugio Otto Meiling on the slopes of Cerro Tronador, one of the most prominent peaks in the Bariloche region. The route climbs through coihue and lenga forests before emerging onto a high rocky ridge that culminates at the refuge (1,905m). Positioned between the Castaño Overa and Alerce glaciers, the stay offers a unique opportunity to witness active glacial calving. The trail follows a well-defined path of forest floor and alpine rock, with a final sustained push to reach the rocky spine where the hut perches.

The Tregennis Peninsula offers some of the wildest and oldest coastal scenery in Wales. This stunning 6-mile (9.6km) circular walk starts from the tiny, fjord-like harbor of Porth Clais, just down the road from the city of St Davids. It traces the jagged perimeter of the peninsula along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, gazing out over the ferocious tidal races of the Ramsey Sound towards Ramsey Island. The geology here is incredibly ancient (Precambrian volcanic rock), creating sharp, jagged headlands. The walk passes active sea-cliff farms, deep hidden 'geo's (inlets), the historic St Justinian's lifeboat station, and the dramatic ruins of a medieval copper mine right on the cliff edge.
