Paparoa Track

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.

Guided glacier trekking on the Perito Moreno Glacier is a specialized activity within Los Glaciares National Park. The glacier, covering approximately 250 square kilometers, is one of the few advancing ice masses in the Patagonian Andes. Access to the ice surface is strictly regulated and conducted via two primary excursion formats: the 'Minitrekking' (introductory) and the 'Big Ice' (extended exploration). Participants navigate a dynamic landscape of crevasses, moulins, and ice ridges using technical equipment under professional supervision. The experience provides a direct perspective on glacial movement and the hydrological processes of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field.
