Description
If breathtaking vistas of the Beagle Channel are what you seek, this trekking path is ideal for you. At the scheduled time, we will collect you from your accommodation in Ushuaia and proceed eastward to reach Baliza Escarpados.
Upon our arrival, we will embark on a scenic hiking journey that leads along the coastal stretch of the Beagle Channel. Our trek begins in Baliza Escarpados, part of the Playa Larga Cultural and Natural Reserve, an area where the magnificent landscapes of the Fuegian forests unfold, brimming with diverse shrubs, native plants, and an array of bird species.
Throughout the excursion, you will encounter archaeological sites left by the indigenous people who called this region home over 6,000 years ago—this is a route steeped in history! You will personally witness this rich past at Estancia Túnel, a location that once served as a barrel factory, sawmill, and cattle ranch.
In this renowned area of Tierra del Fuego, we will pause for a well-deserved lunch, featuring a sandwich, a cereal bar, and an alfajor. This meal will be complemented by a warming herbal tea.
After refueling, we will resume our journey along the path, savoring views of the Beagle Channel as we walk. The route will guide us back to Baliza Escarpados, where our transport back to Ushuaia awaits.
After a fulfilling 5-hour hike, you will be dropped off at your hotel.
