Cotopaxi High-Plateau Circuit

Route Typology: High-Altitude Multi-Day Trekking Concept. Pico Cotopaxi is a near-perfect volcanic cone rising 5,897m. While most visitors see the park via day-trip viewpoints, this conceptual circuit in Cotopaxi National Park (Parque Nacional Cotopaxi) links established sectors and refuge nodes for a deeper immersive experience. **This is a conceptual multi-day traverse linking multiple sectors; it is not a single marked trail.** The route traverses the 'Páramo' ecosystem, skirting the Limpiopungo Lagoon (Laguna de Limpiopungo) and passing near gateway towns like Machachi and Latacunga. Note: The information on this page is for general guidance. Exact routing and access rules vary by season and volcanic status.

The Thorsborne Trail is a 32km point-to-point trekking route along the eastern coastline of Hinchinbrook Island, within Girringun National Park, Queensland. Running between Ramsay Bay in the north and George Point in the south, the trail traverses a diverse tropical landscape of mangrove systems, granite headlands, and rainforest. Hinchinbrook is an uninhabited wilderness island, accessible only by organized boat transfers from the mainland hubs of Cardwell or Lucinda. The route follows the Hinchinbrook Channel side and the open Coral Sea, passing significant features like Zoe Falls and the granite peaks of Mount Bowen.
