Ruta del Cares — The Divine Gorge

The Ruta del Cares is Spain’s most famous hiking trail, often referred to as 'La Garganta Divina' (The Divine Gorge). Carved into the cliffs of the Cares River canyon, the path connects the villages of Poncebos (Asturias) and Caín (León). The trail follows a maintenance path for a hydroelectric canal, contouring along massive limestone walls that rise nearly 2,000 meters above the riverbed. It is a world of vertiginous drops, crystal-clear turquoise water, and herds of mountain goats navigating often not feasible slopes.

The Three Capes Track is a 48km point-to-point trekking route within Tasman National Park, Tasmania. Starting at the Port Arthur Historic Site with a marine transfer across the bay to Denmans Cove, the route traverses the high sea cliffs of the Tasman Peninsula. The track is highly engineered, featuring wide gravel paths and boardwalks that provide safe access to vertical dolerite columns reaching 300 meters above the Southern Ocean. Management is handled by the Tasmania Parks & Wildlife Service, with a regulated north-to-south flow. The route transitions through diverse environments including coastal heathland, dry sclerophyll forest, and temperate rainforest.
