The Chomolhari Trek

The Chomolhari Trek is a 7–9 day high-altitude route through the Jigme Dorji National Park, Bhutan. The trail traverses from Drugyel Dzong toward the base of Mount Jomolhari (7,326m), a sacred peak for the Bhutanese people. The route reaches high points at the Nyele La pass (4,700m) and potentially the Bongte La (~4,890m) depending on the variant. It is characterized by sustained exposure above 3,500 meters, passing through sub-alpine forests and high glacial basins where seasonal yak herders maintain their summer camps.

The Nahuel Huapi Traverse is a multi-day hut-to-hut route that circumnavigates the mountain ranges adjacent to San Carlos de Bariloche. The trail follows a high-alpine path, connecting four distinct mountain refugios via ridgelines, loose scree slopes, and granite passes. The terrain is characterized by a mix of Andean forest and exposed high-altitude terrain, where route-finding and stability on loose rock are primary requirements. The system of stone huts (refugios) provides a logistical framework for the journey, though hikers must be prepared for sustained physical output in an exposed mountain environment.
