Tour Description
On this half-day adventure that combines trekking and paddling, we will pick you up from your hotel and head to the starting location. We kick off with a 40-minute, easy-paced hike through the lush forests and peat bogs unique to Tierra del Fuego. Our journey leads us to Laguna Mariposa, where we'll inflate the rafts that each participant has carried in their backpack. The Packraft is a portable inflatable boat, perfect for navigating all types of water bodies, including challenging whitewater and ocean bays and fjords. It is lightweight, making it ideal for long-distance transport. As we prepare, we will receive a briefing on safety and paddling techniques.
At the lagoon, we will hone our skills before venturing into the river. We will paddle downstream for an hour, soaking in the breathtaking views of the Andes Mountains’ peaks and valleys. As we navigate the river, sightings of ducks, birds, and occasionally beavers are not uncommon.
Our first pause will be at a river beach, where the Laguna Esmeralda stream merges with the Olivia River. Here, we will take a moment to enjoy a snack and unwind, surrounded by the majestic beauty of the environment.
The tour continues through river sections flanked by native forests and shrubs, allowing us to connect deeply with nature and admire the pristine landscape. Ultimately, we return to the initial point, from where you will be transported back to your hotel, concluding a day filled with adventure and natural splendor.
