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.

Lençóis Maranhenses is a vast field of mobile sand dunes positioned along Brazil's northeastern coast. The landscape is defined by the seasonal accumulation of rainwater in the valleys between dunes, creating thousands of clear freshwater lagoons from May through August. The 43km trekking traverse between Atins and Santo Amaro involves sustained walking across soft sand slopes and navigating between the remote Baixa Grande and Queimada dos Britos oases. The primary challenge is the combination of high thermal stress, intense solar reflection from the white sand, and the physical load of soft-substrate movement.
