Three Passes Trek

The significant high-altitude loop. The Three Passes Trek is the most ambitious and physically demanding route in the Everest region. It connects the four main valleys of the Khumbu by crossing three formidable high passes: Kongma La (5,535m), Cho La (5,420m), and Renjo La (5,360m). Unlike the linear EBC trek, this giant loop provides a comprehensive view of the entire Everest massif, taking you away from the main crowds into the rugged, high-altitude wilderness where few others venture. Each pass offers a unique perspective of the 8,000m giants, making it a masterpiece of Himalayan trekking.

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.
