There begins the trail where this beautiful trekking begins. It is a medium-difficulty trekking that lasts approximately eight hours, since the duration depends on the physical state of each one. The ideal is to get to the Laguna de los Tres, from where you have the best view of Fitz Roy. The trail offers intermediate panoramic spots and there are short options for those who don't want to walk so much. If you want to get to Laguna de los Tres, you must bear in mind that the last hour of ascent will be a little more demanding, but with patience and time you will enjoy it a lot.

<span>Day 10</span>Ushuaia: Tierra del Fuego National Park & Beagle navigation (Half Day)

Established in 1960 to preserve the southernmost region of forests along the Beagle Channel, Tierra del Fuego National Park covers nearly 69,000 hectares. Despite being one of the most popular excursions, this will be a unique experience: guiding our visitors in small groups along quiet trails and hidden corners of the forest.

We depart from Ushuaia along National Route 3 and stop at a panoramic viewpoint of the Beagle Channel. Then, we entered the Tierra del Fuego National Park and began our walk to the Lapataia Viewpoint. During our tours, we explore trails in this exceptional environment. We offer both morning and afternoon departures, with a duration of approximately 5 hours each. At the end of this half-day hiking experience, you'll have a full understanding of the peculiarities of this ecosystem. The park is crossed by mountain ranges that divide the terrain into valleys with difficult access. Unlike other Andean-Patagonian parks, it has forests close to the sea coast, which extend for six kilometers along the Beagle Channel. This shapes Lapataia Bay, which in the Yamanian language is translated as “wooded bay” or “bay of good wood”

We embarked on a yacht from the local port in small groups, beginning our trip to Alicia Island, where we can observe a colony of one-haired sea lions. Then, we head to Bird Island, home to colonies of royal and imperial cormorants, along with their nests. Here, it is possible to spot their chicks from spring to autumn.

We continue east, arriving at another small island where, depending on the time of year, it is possible to find two-haired sea lions. Nearby is the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse, a true symbol of the city of Ushuaia, built in 1919. From this point, we can also see the island of rock cormorants.

On the way back, we stop at Bridges Island to explore a flora and avifauna interpretation trail, where we share the history of the Yámanas Aboriginal people. This island is home to the largest anthropogenic Yámanas shells in the region. Since it is the largest island, we ascend to the highest viewpoint, from where we enjoy a magnificent view of the Beagle Channel with the City of Ushuaia in the distance.

Throughout the trip, we shared moments of relaxation with tea, chocolate, coffee with liqueur and cookies.

Includes admission to Tierra del Fuego National Park.

Overnight in Ushuaia.

Meals included: Breakfast.

<span>Day 11</span>Ushuaia: 4x4 & Canoes (Full Day)

We began our exciting excursion heading north of the island along National Route 3, passing through the renowned Cerro Castor ski resort. Once we crossed the majestic Andes, we plunged into the authentic 4×4 adventure. We faced challenging mud and water paths until we reached the impressive shore of Lake Fagnano. At this time, you will have the opportunity to marvel at the exceptional beauty of this place and its unique energy. After this experience, we ventured even more to blaze new trails and add a touch of adrenaline to our trip. We went into the woods to explore an exclusive area without trails, finally arriving at Lake Escondido, where our refuge is located. At this point, our team will be waiting for you with an authentic Argentinian roast, accompanied by an exquisite Malbec wine. To conclude our day, we split up in pairs and prepared to explore the lake with top quality canoes and specialized equipment.

It is important to note that the order of activities could be modified for operational reasons or weather conditions. In addition, canoe sailing may eventually be suspended for safety reasons, and alternative activities are not foreseen in case of cancellation.
