Condoriri Trek

Shadowing the immense peaks of the Cordillera Real north of La Paz, the Condoriri area is a high-altitude mountaineering and trekking hub centered around the glaciated Cabeza de Condor massif. This 3-day point-to-point traverse is a common variant of the trek, connecting the Tuni reservoir with the base of Huayna Potosi. The route weaves past high-alpine glacial lagoons, including the iconic Laguna Chiar Khota, and crosses several passes exceeding 4,900m, including the 5,200m Paso Austria. While no technical climbing is required for the trekking route, the sustained altitude and steep scree slopes define the physical challenge.

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.
