I discovered the magic of trekking in Ushuaia

Adrenaline and excitement in the Glacier
But wait, the best is yet to come. After a walk that tests you, suddenly, the majestic Ojo del Albino Glacier unfolds before your eyes. That immensity of ice surrounded by the imposing Rhino towers will leave you breathless. Imagine yourself there, in the middle of nowhere, having lunch and contemplating that wonder.
More than a walk, an experience on ice
If the weather and conditions permit, it's time to put on your crampons and begin a unique hike on the ice. Feel the crunch under your feet, let yourself be surprised by the frozen formations and the panoramic views that will take your breath away.
