Descripción del Tour:
Your adventure kicks off as our vehicle collects you from your accommodation in Ushuaia. Leaving the city center behind, we make our way to the Martial Glacier Trail Tourist Reserve, a sanctuary nestled in the mountainous core of Tierra del Fuego.
Upon reaching the trailhead, the setting sun paints the sky with warm, gentle hues. Here, we embark on a leisurely hike suitable for everyone aged 5 and up, always under the guidance of a specialized guide.
The path immediately leads us into the Patagonian Andean forest, surrounded by lenga, coihue, and ñire trees, whose leaves shift with the seasons. As we progress, the forest’s whispers and the sunset's golden glow create a serene ambiance, fostering a deep connection with nature.
Gradually, the scenery unfolds, revealing broad peat bogs—characteristic wetlands of the region—where low vegetation provides increasingly panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. The terrain is nearly flat, ensuring the trail is accessible and delightful, even for those new to trekking.
Throughout the hike, we pause at three natural viewpoints, each offering a distinctive vista. As night descends, we witness the city lights of Ushuaia twinkling in the distance, juxtaposed against the dark silhouette of the Andes Mountains, the tranquil waters of the Beagle Channel, and its islands' outlines.
The final segment of our journey presents one of the trip's most unforgettable moments: the profound stillness of the nightscape, the vastness of the Fuegian sky, and the privilege of witnessing one of the southern world's most stunning sunsets amidst unspoiled nature.
After savoring this natural marvel, we begin our return trek with headlamps, completing a secure, magical, and deeply Patagonian experience. As we descend towards the city in our vehicle, our hearts brim with indelible memories.
