Santa Cruz Trek

Consistently ranked as one of the best treks in the world, the Santa Cruz weaves through the heart of the Cordillera Blanca. Surrounded by dozens of 6,000-meter peaks—including Huascarán, Peru's highest mountain, and Alpamayo (often called often regarded as one of the most beautiful mountain)—this 3-to-4-day route cuts a dramatic path over the soaring Punta Union pass at 4,750m. Hikers traverse surreal turquoise glacial lakes, sprawling alpine meadows, and desolate moraines in a truly formidable high-altitude environment.

The Thorsborne Trail is a 32km point-to-point trekking route along the eastern coastline of Hinchinbrook Island, within Girringun National Park, Queensland. Running between Ramsay Bay in the north and George Point in the south, the trail traverses a diverse tropical landscape of mangrove systems, granite headlands, and rainforest. Hinchinbrook is an uninhabited wilderness island, accessible only by organized boat transfers from the mainland hubs of Cardwell or Lucinda. The route follows the Hinchinbrook Channel side and the open Coral Sea, passing significant features like Zoe Falls and the granite peaks of Mount Bowen.
