12:00 am - 11:59 pm

Day 1: Ushuaia

Welcome to Ushuaia! Upon your arrival in Ushuaia, you will be taken to your selected hotel (shared service).

Ushuaia is a small town, really easy to get around on foot. The Yamanas, its first inhabitants, called it Ushuaia which means ’protected bay’ in their language. It was officially incorporated into the Republic of Argentina in 1884, and it soon became a penal colony, in order to establish a permanent Argentine settlement.

Take the afternoon to explore the town or visit one of its curious museums, like the Thematic Gallery of the Historia Fueguina, to see the more than 120 character life-size figures that will tell you all about the history of Ushuaia, or unearth the story of the scariest and dangerous criminals at the Prison Museum. And please, don’t forget the local gastronomy! Ushuaia is the best place to eat seafood. We suggest you try the finger-licking Blake Hake.

Once at Ensenada Bay, you will have time to enjoy the view over the Beagle Channel before starting your hike along the coast. Six kilometers (3.7 miles) of wild trail await, where you’ll discover native flora and wild fauna and the remains left by the Yamanas, the native inhabitants of the area.

After this 3 hour hike, you will reach Lake Roca, where lunch will be served. After a full homemade picnic, you will start the second part of this adventure. Grab your oar and plunge into this 1 h 30 canoeing trip along Lapataia river. Make it all the way till Lapataia Bay, where the Panamerican Highway and National Route 3 end at an awe-inspiring landscape.

Near the northern end of Lake Escondido, we will leave the asphalt and begin a journey through the old roads of a sawmill that soon become impassable trails for conventional vehicles and end at Lake Fagnano, the fifth largest lake in Argentina.

In the forest near the Fagnano coast, we will have free time to walk and explore while the guide prepares a full meal that is enjoyed comfortably in an exclusive refuge in the middle of a natural environment, far from the noise of modern life.
