Full description
Discover Tierra del Fuego National Park from Ushuaia, traveling along Route 3, the End of the World Train, subantarctic forests, Lake Acigami, and Lapataia Bay. Enjoy stunning landscapes, native wildlife, and the southernmost viewpoints of Argentina.
Starting from the hotel in the city of Ushuaia, heading southwest, we will travel along National Route 3, towards Tierra del Fuego National Park. On the way to the park we will see the Equestrian Center, where we will have excellent panoramic views of the Beagle Channel, the Ushuaia Peninsula, the Murray Channel and the Bridges and Les Eclaireurs archipelagos.
After crossing the bridge over the Pipo River, next to the Ushuaia Golf Club, we will arrive at the End of the World Train station. Those visitors who wish may board the train -tickets are at the passenger's expense-. We continue the journey with the vehicle 2 kms more and we will enter the National Park, an area reserved for the protection of the Subantarctic Forest, native flora and fauna and at the crossing to Ensenada Zaratiegui we will wait for the arrival of the train.
Along the road surrounded by forests of lengas, ñires, guindos and peat bogs, we will arrive at Lake Acigami (ex Roca), a lake of glacial origin, framed by mountains and forests, where it is possible to see specimens of autochthonous birds.
The last part of the excursion takes us to Lapataia Bay, after crossing the cormorant archipelago, peat bogs, forest and environments transformed by beavers. There we will have time to walk along the footbridges, which were built to protect the soil and the archaeological remains of the first inhabitants of the area more than 6000 years ago. From this place, the end of National Route 3, we will start our return to the city.
