Copper Canyon (Barranca del Cobre)

Deeper and wider than the Grand Canyon. The Copper Canyon (Barranca del Cobre) is a vast system of six distinct canyons in the Sierra Madre Occidental of northwestern Mexico. Hiking here is a journey into the ancestral home of the Rarámuri (Tarahumara) people, often regarded as one of the most famous long-distance runners. The trek from Creel to Divisadero over 3-4 days takes you from high-altitude pine forests down into subtropical canyon floors, crossing suspension bridges and passing remote cave dwellings. It is a world of vertical scale, ancient culture, and absolute solitude.

Considered a premier multi-day trekking route in Los Glaciares National Park, the Huemul Circuit provides a circumnavigation of Cerro Huemul near El Chaltén. The route crosses two significant passes—Paso del Viento and Paso Huemul—offering direct panoramas of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field. Terrain varies from forested valley floors and river crossings to exposed glacial moraines and high-altitude scree slopes. The circuit is defined by its remoteness and the requirement for technical river crossing skills using fixed steel cables.
