Details of the Day Tour

Your adventure begins with a pick-up at your accommodation in Ushuaia. We will board a robust off-road vehicle, designed to navigate the diverse terrain of Tierra del Fuego and its winding roads. Let’s get started!

The trip will commence with a short overview of the electronic industry from the 1970s, as we drive past the remnants of this historical commercial hub. Soon after, we'll traverse the Olivia River and ascend the breathtaking mountain sharing its name, revealing magnificent landscapes.

We will then proceed to the Carbajal Valley viewpoint, surrounded by impressive glaciers and towering mountains. Our journey continues towards Paso Garibaldi, a prime vantage point offering magnificent views of Lago Escondido and Lago Fagnano.

Are you prepared for the exhilarating segment of our trip? We will navigate mountain routes through the forest, leading us to the shores of Lago Escondido and the abandoned Petrel Inn. Upon arrival, you'll have leisure time to unwind, take photographs, and savor a cup of mate, tea, or coffee along with some pastries.

Our path will next lead us to the town of Tolhuin, located by the banks of Lago Fagnano. Here, we will also visit the Valdez Valley viewpoint. As we arrive in Tolhuin, you’ll be charmed by its unique architecture and ambiance, complemented by the opportunity to wander through its charming streets. Make sure to stop by the well-known bakery!

Following this, we'll head towards Estancia Pirinaica, a country dwelling where you'll experience the essence of rural life in Tierra del Fuego. After this, we will reach Cape San Pablo, where you'll get a glimpse of Lobos Island.

Feeling hungry? At La Casa del Pescador, we'll enjoy a delightful lunch featuring options such as smoked sea bass empanadas, salmon, meat, or vegetables as starters. For the main course, choose from pizza-style sea bass with Valencian rice or purée, chorizo with fried mashed potatoes, or a vegetarian stuffed zucchini. Don’t miss out on a house dessert and a drink!

Post-lunch, we’ll tie our hiking boots and embark on a trek to Faro San Pablo, where you'll encounter the sunken vessel known as Desdémona. Have you ever wondered how it ended up there, abandoned since the 1940s? This will be a splendid location to conclude our day trip!

Lastly, we will head back to Ushuaia, where we'll bid farewell at your hotel after an enriching 12-hour experience.
