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.

Located in the Jökuldalur Valley in East Iceland, Stuðlagil Canyon features one of the country's most significant formations of hexagonal basalt columns. The canyon's current appearance is a result of the Kárahnjúkar hydroelectric project, which diverted the Jökla river and lowered the water levels to reveal the geometric rock walls. Reaching the canyon floor requires hiking the East Side, which follows an 8km round-trip route along unpaved tracks. The path passes the Stuðlafoss waterfall before reaching a short, steep descent into the canyon where the basalt columns meet the river's edge.
