For those who enjoy contact with nature, a visit to the Tierra del Fuego National Park is a must.

Sailing through the frozen Beagle Channel with wildlife spotting

Sailing on the Beagle Channel is another of the most popular and accessible activities for everyone. The classic sailing trip, which takes in Les Éclaireurs lighthouse and the islands inhabited by sea lions and birds, is perfect for seniors and families with children, as it is done in comfortable boats and requires no physical exertion. Most of these traditional excursions can be done in packs, so by booking a group of excursions you can organise busy days and days off.

Water between mountains, the beautiful Emerald Lagoon

For the more active travellers, Ushuaia also offers moderate adventure proposals such as the trekking to the Esmeralda Lagoon. This walking tour, which goes through forests and peat until reaching a lagoon of turquoise waters surrounded by mountains, is ideal for adults and youngsters willing to walk and connect with the landscape.. Although it is not recommended for people with reduced mobility, it is an unforgettable experience for those looking for a hike of medium difficulty and postcard-perfect scenery.

Light aircraft overflight, breathtaking landscapes also from the air

Another fantastic option is to have a good time doing a flyover, yes, you read that right, flying over the city and its surroundings is also one of the most interesting and entertaining activities at the end of the world.. All you need is desire, adrenaline and a good camera to take unforgettable photos of a different kind of trip. Of course, with all the safety and comfort that the activity requires, the plane will be waiting for you to see memorable landscapes from the air.

Families with children will find activities that combine entertainment and learning. The visit to the National Park together with the ride on the End of the World Train is an excellent option for children, since it allows them to travel on a real steam train while they listen to stories of prisoners and pioneers of the area. Besides, the trip to the penguin colony is usually one of the most awaited moments for children, as they can watch these friendly birds walking freely around the island.

Even gastronomic experiences can become an excursion in itself. A snack in the centre of Ushuaia, with a beautiful setting and a delicious offer of homemade cakes, can be a cosy and charming stop to share between generations after a day of sightseeing.
