Hiking in the mountains

Hello adventurers, welcome to an unforgettable experience in the southernmost city in the world. If you are looking to marvel at natural, dazzling and unique landscapes, you are in the right place. Let us be your guides and take you to discover secret corners that only Ushuaia can offer you.

Ushuaia, más que una ciudad, es una puerta a la naturaleza virgen y misteriosa. Y una de las joyas escondidas de esta tierra es la caminata “Experiencia laguna esmeralda”. No es solo un trekking, es una inmersión en la belleza natural, en la historia y el corazón de la Patagonia.

Ushuaia Treasure Walk

Start of the adventure

From the moment you leave your accommodation, the experience begins. Just 20 minutes from the city, we enter a trail, which varies depending on the season. You will walk through peat bogs, rocky terrain and, best of all, bordering the Esmeralda River.

The jewel in the crown: Laguna Esmeralda

After touring a charming forest, you arrive at the majestic Emerald Lagoon. A lake of glacial origin that in summer gives us a spectacle of unmatched colors, thanks to the sediments of the Ojo del Albino Glacier. In winter, its white blanket offers us a surreal landscape. While we appreciate this wonder, we are going to delight ourselves with a delicious box lunch.

The return to the city

The return path, now familiar, gives us the last opportunity to mingle with the magic that surrounds us. And at the end, a comfortable vehicle awaits us to take us back to the warmth of the city.

Contratamos 3 excursiones.Primero el tren más parque, donde nos tocó Irina y Fito. Ambos dos genios! Excelente conducción y la guía sabía mucho y explica muy bien. Segunda la pinguinera, y la tercera hicimos recorrido de lagos en 4*4, Guillermo muy amable nos comentó de todo el impacto ambiental de la zona y sabe mucho de los árboles típicos. Ellos mismos luego realizan un asado, súper amables y muy atentos con las porciones y el punto de la carne.
