Huemul Circuit

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.

The Illampu Circuit is a demanding 6-to-7-day trek that circumnavigates the northern giants of the Cordillera Real: Illampu (6,368m) and Ancohuma (6,427m). Often described as one of Bolivia's most vertically significant non-technical routes, the loop starts and ends in the sub-tropical town of Sorata (2,700m). Much of the circuit sits above 4,000m once the Sorata valley is left behind, crossing multiple high passes including the Abra de la Calzada (~5,045m). The route crosses high-altitude pampas inhabited by Aymara herders and traverses rugged moraine fields directly beneath active glaciers.
