Adventure Holidays In South America |
Does the thought of swimming in underwater gardens, pounding steep cliff faces, hiking rivers and waterfalls downstream, or paddling through jungles interest you? South America , the world’s fourth largest continent, offers a great choice of activities for adventure sports enthusiasts. The world's longest mountain range, highest waterfall, mightiest river, driest desert, largest rainforest, tallest active snow-capped volcano and the most southerly city are all in there. From the Amazon Jungle and The Andes mountains to The Atacama desert and the Glapagos islands, South America ’s natural wonders also include the lakes, peaks, deserts, and glaciers of Patagonia , the steamy jungles and active volcanoes of Ecuador and the deep blue waters of Lake Titicaca in Peru .
The odd and spectacular Grand Savannah in Venezuela and the world’s most arid desert, the Atacama Desert in Chile , also offer a wealth of experiences. Highlights for adventure sports enthusiasts include hiking through the wild, mountainous south of Argentina where rugged, snow-capped mountains are fringed by huge lakes and windswept grasslands, and mountain biking through the spectacular scenery of Tierra del Fuego which is literally at the world's end. Highlights also include trekking through Ecuador’s Amazonian rainforest, canoeing through the deep humid jungle of Venezuela, climbing Aconcagua the toughest trekking peak in South America, trekking Cordillera Blanca the highest concentration of snow-capped peaks in the whole of the Andes, hiking among the dramatic peaks and lakes of Chile, trekking through Avenue of the Volcanoes in Ecuador, and canoeing in the Atlantic rainforest of Brazil. Not to be outdone, Peru 's Inca Trail offers hikers the finest combination of history and scenery to be found on a trekking tour anywhere in the world. South America is made up of twelve countries and three major territories. Its highest point is the Cerro Aconcagua Andes Mountains in Argentina , which stand at 6959m.
