Laguna Torre (Cerro Torre)

One of the most frequented day hikes from El Chaltén, the route to Laguna Torre leads to a glacial lake at the base of the Torre massif. The 18 km out-and-back trail follows the Fitz Roy River valley, moving through sub-antarctic forests of ñire and lenga. The terrain is primarily well-maintained gravel paths and packed dirt, with a short initial ascent followed by mostly level walking through the glacial valley. The destination offers direct views of Cerro Torre (3,128m) and the Adela range, with icebergs frequently calving from the Torre Glacier into the lake.

The Larapinta Trail is a 223km point-to-point long-distance track in the Northern Territory, Australia. Spanning from the Alice Springs Telegraph Station to the summit of Mount Sonder, the route traverses the spine of the West MacDonnell Ranges (Tjoritja). The landscape is defined by Proterozoic-era quartzite ridges, narrow gorge systems, and ephemeral river beds. The trail possesses deep cultural significance to the Arrernte people and offers exposure to one of the world's oldest geological landscapes.
