Mount Fitz Roy (Cerro Fitz Roy)

The trek to Laguna de los Tres is one of the primary day activities in Los Glaciares National Park, providing a close-perspective view of the granite massif of Mount Fitz Roy (3,405m). The route follows an out-and-back trail through mixed forest and glaciated valleys, passing the Piedras Blancas viewpoint before the final ascent. The journey is defined by a significant transition from the low-lying valley floor to the high-alpine environment of the lagoon, which sits directly below the main peaks.

A journey through resilience. The Paparoa Track is New Zealand's 10th Great Walk, crossing the spectacular Paparoa Range. It was built as a memorial to the 29 miners lost in the Pike River Mine disaster. This 55km track offers a diverse landscape of limestone karst formations, lush rainforests, and expansive alpine tops. It is unique among Great Walks as it is open to both hikers and mountain bikers year-round. The trail connects Blackball on the eastern side to Punakaiki on the west, providing a traverse through some of the West Coast's most dramatic and untouched wilderness.
