South America Hiking Adventures
Explore the wonders of South America with Wildland Trekking
We love South America! It is in many ways a mirror of North America. Toward the equator, both continents are tropical, with rain forests and epic rivers. As one heads out from the equator toward the poles, the climates get drier and cooler; the mountains get taller and more glaciated; the rivers get clearer; and the forests become more temperate. The land gets more populated, then it grows far less populated as you progress toward the extremes (Patagonia and Alaska respectively).
While they are mirrors in some ways, North and South America are also dramatically different! With vast cultural and language differences, varying cuisine, and exotic wildlife, South America offers a wealth of adventure and trekking opportunities. Join us in Peru or Patagonia for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
