Descripción

Discover breathtaking landscapes in the Tierra del Fuego archipelago on a hike to the Esmeralda Lagoon!  

From your hotel in Ushuaia, you will head to the starting point of your tour. Accompanied by your guide, you will set off on a 2-hour hike through the trails of Tierra del Fuego. You will cross Tierra Mayor glacial valley, passing peat bogs, which are areas characterised by their very high organic content. You will wind your way through rocky terrain to a forest. 

You will continue your walk through the woods along the Esmeralda River to finally reach the lagoon, a small glacial lake with an emerald colour. You will have a lunch break in this beautiful place to regain your strength and take time to contemplate the unique landscapes around you.

You will make the way back to the starting point and be driven back to your hotel afterwards.
