Reserve a day to explore Tierra del Fuego National Park with its stunning scenery and uncover some city history during the Tren del Fin del Mundo ride. After a delicious lunch, continue enjoying various attractions like the beautiful Playa Larga and the famous Martial Glacier, offering breathtaking views of Ushuaia and the Beagle Channel.
We depart from the hotel towards Tierra del Fuego National Park, the southernmost on the planet and the only one in Argentina combining mountain, lake, and sea. An experienced guide will illustrate the tour, sharing details and stories about the places visited.
Our first stop is at the Fin del Mundo station, just before the park entrance. Here, those interested in the train ride can purchase tickets. Onboard the train, you'll enjoy the landscape while learning about the history of this railway that transported prisoners from Ushuaia's prison to Mount Susana. The ride lasts about 1 hour.
For those not opting for the train, enjoy the charming station and hear the railway's storey from our guide.
After the train ride, we head to our next stop: the End of the World Post Office. Here, you can stamp your passport with the “End of the World” mark or even send a postcard to friends and family (open only in summer).
Next, we visit Lake Roca, near the Chilean border, for a short hike to learn more about Tierra del Fuego's vegetation and fauna.
We then proceed to the Alakush visitor centre, housing a museum of the island's ancient indigenous people and a great cafeteria. From here, enjoy a panoramic view of Cerro Condor and Lapataia River.
Our journey continues to the stunning Lapataia Bay, where you can see a section of the Beagle Channel and beautiful Magellanic forests. Here lies the end of Route 3, the road reaching the southernmost point on the planet, aptly called “The End of the World.”
Having explored Tierra del Fuego, we leave the park towards Ushuaia, where we enjoy lunch at an excellent restaurant (Brix Bar).
After lunch, we head to the lovely Playa Larga beach to continue our tour.
