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 South Downs Way is a 100-mile (160km) National Trail that follows the rolling chalk ridge of the South Downs National Park, from the historic city of Winchester in Hampshire to the stunning white cliffs of Eastbourne in Sussex. The entire route lies entirely within a National Park, offering sweeping, elevated views over the English Channel to the south and the patchwork fields of the Weald to the north. Characterised by ancient hill forts, idyllic woodland, and wide, springy turf paths, it is one of the most accessible and popular long-distance trails in the UK.
