Read on to learn more about this unique experience we want to invite you to!
The adventure begins at the door of your lodging from where we will pick you up to start the trip.
Once we are all ready... We are off to Laguna Esmeralda!
Antes de comenzar la caminata, nuestro guía nos va a dar algunos tips para disfrutar a full del sendero. Una vez finalizada la charla técnica, nos adentramos en la senda.
Little by little we leave the noises of the road behind us and let ourselves be enveloped by the sounds of the Fuegian forest, the landscapes of the peat bogs and the mountain peaks that seem to be getting closer and closer.
The path we follow will lead us to two valleys: the Tierra Mayor Valley and the Carbajal Valley.
There you will get to know the lenga forests, mountains and glaciers. This journey is magical because it takes us from one landscape to another, revealing the secrets of the most incredible nature of Tierra del Fuego.
The fauna of the area is also something worth stopping at. If we look up from time to time, we can find birds flying over the area.
We get to know the beaver farms we talk so much about!
The Canadian beaver is a species introduced in Tierra del Fuego. In the 1940s, without the environmental knowledge we have now, this enormous rodent was introduced to exploit it in the fur industry. When we say huge, we mean huge: they can measure up to 1 meter.
On the way through the Carbajal Valley, we pass by the beaver farm, but there are no beavers because it has been cleaned up. So you will be able to see this habitat up close and understand the problems they generate in the natural environment.
We will continue along the Esmeralda River, making our way to unique places. There is something in the landscape that can be seen almost nowhere else in Patagonia: the peat bogs.
In the last glaciation (are you familiar with the Ice Age?) large areas of the earth were occupied by ice caps and the climate cooled globally.
When temperatures rose again, the glaciers retreated and gave way to the lagoons that flood these valleys. These are the famous peatlands: wetlands of glacial origin that are extremely important for the planet's ecology.
These geological processes left in their wake ecosystems that balance the biodiversity of our island and give us incomparable landscapes.
The Esmeralda River accompanies us to our final destination and gives us a foretaste of the color we are all anxious to see.
¡Llegamos a Laguna Esmeralda! Vamos a poder apreciR su colorido y su espectacular paisaje.
Entonces buscamos un lugar agradable para sentarnos y comer nuestra lonchera. Comeremos escuchando el sonido del agua, y sintiendo la inmensidad de las montañas rodeadas por el Glaciar Albino, Cerro Bonete y Cordón Toribio.
Te garantizamos que nunca olvidarás este lunch.
On the way back, we will be able to take the photos that you have left pending. Our driver will be waiting for you at the base to take you to your lodging, so that you can rest after this morning in the Fuegian forest.
If you came to Ushuaia looking for nature, mountains and landscapes, you cannot miss this excursion.
Descubrí el secreto paradisíaco que esconden las montañas de Tierra del Fuego: el trekking Laguna Esmeralda.
Do you like nature and the mountains? Then this hike is for you. You will get one of the most beautiful pictures of Tierra del Fuego.
We will pick you up at your hotel, and we will drive 16 kilometers along National Route 3 until we reach the beginning of the trail. The adventure begins!
In total, you will walk 9 kilometers (round trip) through the forest: glacial valleys, beavers, peat bogs and the magic of Tierra del Fuego that will accompany you throughout the journey...
This hike is considered of medium difficulty, and does not present significant slopes.

There you will get to know the lenga forests, mountains and glaciers. This journey is magical because it takes us from one landscape to another, revealing the secrets of the most incredible nature of Tierra del Fuego.
The fauna of the area is also something worth stopping at. If we look up from time to time, we can find birds flying over the area.
We get to know the beaver farms we talk so much about!
The Canadian beaver is a species introduced in Tierra del Fuego. In the 1940s, without the environmental knowledge we have now, this enormous rodent was introduced to exploit it in the fur industry. When we say huge, we mean huge: they can measure up to 1 meter.
On the way through the Carbajal Valley, we pass by the beaver farm, but there are no beavers because it has been cleaned up. So you will be able to see this habitat up close and understand the problems they generate in the natural environment.
We will continue along the Esmeralda River, making our way to unique places. There is something in the landscape that can be seen almost nowhere else in Patagonia: the peat bogs.
In the last glaciation (are you familiar with the Ice Age?) large areas of the earth were occupied by ice caps and the climate cooled globally.
When temperatures rose again, the glaciers retreated and gave way to the lagoons that flood these valleys. These are the famous peatlands: wetlands of glacial origin that are extremely important for the planet's ecology.
These geological processes left in their wake ecosystems that balance the biodiversity of our island and give us incomparable landscapes.
The Esmeralda River accompanies us to our final destination and gives us a foretaste of the color we are all anxious to see.
¡Llegamos a Laguna Esmeralda! Vamos a poder apreciR su colorido y su espectacular paisaje.
Entonces buscamos un lugar agradable para sentarnos y comer nuestra lonchera. Comeremos escuchando el sonido del agua, y sintiendo la inmensidad de las montañas rodeadas por el Glaciar Albino, Cerro Bonete y Cordón Toribio.
Te garantizamos que nunca olvidarás este lunch.
On the way back, we will be able to take the photos that you have left pending. Our driver will be waiting for you at the base to take you to your lodging, so that you can rest after this morning in the Fuegian forest.
If you came to Ushuaia looking for nature, mountains and landscapes, you cannot miss this excursion.
