Ushuaia & Martial Glacier Tour
Description
Discover the End of the World through this Ushuaia tour, which includes a remarkable experience on the Martial Glacier chairlift, offering breathtaking views of the snowy vistas.
Tour Overview
Our journey will commence on the Avenida Prefectura Naval Argentina, where we will embark on a walking exploration of Ushuaia, noted as one of the southernmost urban centers in South America.
The adventure begins in the La Misión neighborhood, the birthplace of Ushuaia. Here, we will delve into its beginnings and uncover the tales of the initial settlements that emerged in this stunning locale, bordered by stunning natural landscapes, perfectly situated at the southernmost edge of the Andes.
As we progress, we will reflect on the magnificent scenery of Tierra del Fuego while proceeding towards the prominent sign that designates Ushuaia as the "End of the World." Following this, we will hop into a vehicle for a quick 20-minute drive to Cerro Martial, located to the north of the city.
Upon arrival, prepare for an exceptional experience aboard the Martial Glacier chairlift. This ascent offers unparalleled panoramic vistas of Ushuaia, the Beagle Channel, and the snow-draped heights of the Fuegian Andes.
At the glacier's peak, you will have approximately 1 hour of free time to roam some of its trails, snap photos, and savor the extraordinary panoramas. Subsequently, we will descend via the chairlift back to the base, where a light snack awaits.
In conclusion, we will transport you by car from the foot of Mount Martial to your accommodation in Ushuaia, marking the end of this 4-hour experience.
