Known as the southernmost city on the planet and blessed with stunning geography that unfolds majestically along the Beagle Channel, Ushuaia has established itself as a world-renowned tourist destination. However, this excursion proposes to stray from the most crowded routes and venture into the wild nature of Tierra del Fuego, where its grandeur can still be appreciated in its full splendor.

We will traverse vast glacial valleys and cross the mountain range from south to north, in search of a hidden trail in the forest that will lead us to an (almost) easy hike to a lookout point. From there, we can admire in all its magnificence the lands that just 150 years ago were inhabited solely by the Selk'nam people, the indigenous inhabitants of this place. While we delight in the beauty of the landscape, we will share the history of this people, their customs, and the impact that the arrival of the white man had on their lives.
After the hike, we will continue in a vehicle towards the north, venturing into a wooded path in search of a magical place we have discovered near the coast of Lake Fagnano. There, in an exclusive refuge secluded from civilization but close to nature, we will light a fire just as the Selk'nam used to do. We will replicate an ancestral rite that will connect us with the simplicity of observing the flames dance while listening to the whisper of the lake waves hitting the shore.
The evening will continue with a traditional Argentine barbecue dinner, illuminated by the last rays of the sunset and enjoying a warm and relaxed atmosphere. This experience will transport us to a place where the grandeur of nature and cultural richness intertwine in harmony. Tierra del Fuego is a destination that goes beyond the known and invites us to be captivated by its charm.
