Highlights

We are a boutique receptive agency and our passion is to take care of every detail. Our proposal will take you to a trekking trail that reaches the Emerald Lagoon. From the hotel we will go by comfortable transport to the start of the trail. From there we will take the trail that enters the forest inside the Tierra Mayor Valley. We will cross several turbulence and rocky terrain. We will continue our hike along the Emerald River until we reach the indescribable Emerald Lagoon, a small lake of glacier origin, which owes its name to the color given to the sediments that come from the Ojo del Albino Glacier. This color can only be seen in summer as in winter it will be frozen and covered in snow. While we enjoy the view of the Lagoon we will charge energy eating a box lunch. We can now start the return, where the road will be familiar and we can have the last chance to appreciate the beauties around us. Important: bring bottle water

About Ushuaia

Ushuaia, on the Beagle Channel in Tierra del Fuego, is often called the southernmost city in the world, a port ringed by snowy peaks.

Ushuaia sits on a narrow shelf between the Beagle Channel and the Martial mountains, in the Argentine half of Tierra del Fuego. It began as a mission and later became a penal colony, and the old prison, now a museum, tells that story alongside the maritime history of the far south. Painted houses climb the slope, and the harbour is where expedition ships leave for Antarctica.

Top-ranked sights in Ushuaia: Tierra del Fuego National Park, Lapataia Bay, Beagle Channel.
