🌊 Lakes Escondido and Fagnano: the great protagonists of the adventure
The 4×4 Adventures in Ushuaia have their heart in the great lakes of Tierra del Fuego: Escondido and Fagnano, two natural stages that show the magnitude and beauty of Ushuaia.
📍 Lake Escondido:
Located in a depression surrounded by mountains, the Lake Escondido hides among lenga and guindo forests, offering a landscape of absolute calm. From the Paso Garibaldi viewpoint, at 500 meters above sea level, you can enjoy its incredible view. Its name reflects its magic: when the mist covers it, the lake disappears like a mystery.
📍 Lake Fagnano:
With more than 100 km in length, it is one of the largest lakes in Patagonia and among the longest in our Argentina. Its beauty hides a fascinating geological phenomenon: the lake is located on the Magallanes-Fagnano Fault, an active tectonic fracture that has shaped it for millennia and that, even today, continues to transform the landscape. In addition, when the wind blows, it looks like a true inland sea because of the waves it reaches.
