Itinerary

I experienced one of the most challenging crossings in Ushuaia: a 21 km trek through forests, glacier valleys and icy lagoons until reaching the imposing Ojo del Albino Glacier, in the middle of the Andes Mountains. The adventure begins with the transfer from your accommodation to the starting point, we perform the check-up of the technical team and a short security talk before starting the hike. The tour enters the Fueguin forest following nature trails until reaching the Emerald Lagoon. We reached our mountain refuge to gather strength and continued. From there begins the most demanding section of the route: the technical ascent to the glacier. Equipped with crampons and walking sticks, the participants advance between steep slopes, surrounded by charming scenery Arriving at the Ojo del Albino Glacier, the group enjoys a well-deserved rest and lunch in front of the imposing glacier amphitheater, a unique natural setting. The return takes place along the same path, accompanied by the guides who guarantee the safety and pace of the group. The activity ends with the transfer back to Ushuaia
