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.

This scenic 5-mile (8km) circular walk explores the Lizard Peninsula, the absolute southernmost point of mainland Britain. The route offers a vibrant cross-section of dramatic Cornish geology, famous for its unique dark-green serpentine rock. Starting near the lighthouse at Lizard Point (infamous for shipwrecks), the path follows the rugged South West Coast Path westward along the clifftops. The destination is Kynance Cove, widely considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, where jagged serpentine stacks rise out of impossibly clear turquoise waters. The return leg cuts inland across the rare, heath-covered Lizard National Nature Reserve.
