Cordillera Apolobamba Traverse

The Apolobamba Traverse is a remote, high-altitude backpacking route in the northern Bolivian Andes. Spanning approximately 92km between the villages of Pelechuco and Curva, the trek crosses the ancestral territory of the Kallawaya people—traditional herbalists recognized by UNESCO. The route follows ancient stone paths and animal trails, staying almost exclusively above 4,200m. It traverses several high passes, including the 5,100m Sunchuli Pass, offering direct views of the 6,000m peaks of the northern Apolobamba range. Due to its distance from major cities, it remains one of the least-trafficked and most preserved regions of the Bolivian Andes.

Often described as one of the southernmost established multi-day trekking circuits in the world. The Dientes de Navarino is a legendary 40-50km loop on Navarino Island, south of the Beagle Channel. This is 'extreme Patagonia'—a place where the wind is a constant companion and trails are often replaced by GPS coordinates and intuition. The circuit winds through the jagged Dientes range, crossing several steep passes like Paso Virginia and Paso Australia. Trekkers experience a primeval landscape of stunted beech forests, peat bogs, and wind-scoured granite spires. It is a trek for the self-sufficient, offering a raw intensity and isolation that has vanished from more famous Patagonian routes.
