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 primary trekking route on Isla del Sol is the 'Ridge Path'—an ancient trail connecting the villages of Yumani in the south and Challapampa in the north. Spanning approximately 10km, the traverse winds through a landscape of terraced hillsides and Inca archaeological sites, including the Chincana labyrinth. Situated at approximately 3,810m to 4,050m above the surface of Lake Titicaca, the route offers a managed physical challenge on well-defined stone paths. The island is entirely car-free, requiring all movement to be on foot or supported by pack animals.
