March in Ushuaia, the prelude to the austral autumn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

March is the right time to enjoy Ushuaia more calmly, without giving up experiences. There is still good light to make the most of the days, the weather is usually good for outdoor activities and, at the same time, the busy season slows down a bit. For those who are looking to combine nature, fauna, landscapes and adventure without rushing with the itinerary, travelling to the End of the World in March is one of the best decisions of the year. It is also a key month if you want to experience the \u201cultimate\u201d of certain seasonal experiences, such as penguin watching,<\/strong><\/a> before destiny begins to enter fully into its transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What the weather is like in Ushuaia in March and what to bring to be comfortable.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In March the weather in Ushuaia tends to be milder than in later months,<\/strong><\/a> But there is one detail to keep in mind: it's not just the temperature, but the mix of wind and humidity that can change the wind chill in just a few hours. That's why it works best to dress in layers and think of your coat as a \u201csystem\u201d: a light first layer, a mid-layer and a windproof and waterproof jacket for sailing or hiking without depending on the perfect forecast. If you're hiking on trails, shoes with good grip are key because some sections can be wet, and a small backpack with thin gloves, a light hat and a foldable mackintosh will save the day when the weather turns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last call to the Penguin Colony: the seasonal experience not to be postponed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are travelling in March and you have to choose an excursion that feels really \u201cseasonal\u201d.\u201d, The sailing to the Isla Martillo penguin colony is a plan that should be prioritised.<\/strong><\/a>. It is a classic of the Beagle Channel, but with a very specific attraction: at this time of the year you can still see the penguin colony and experience this unique postcard of the destination before the season is over. It is ideal to do it in the first days of the trip, because it guarantees you to enjoy the experience even if the weather changes later on or if you want to leave other days for walks and land excursions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tierra del Fuego National Park: the must-see to connect with the Fuegian landscape<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Tierra del Fuego National Park<\/strong> is one of those excursions that explain Ushuaia by themselves: forest, coast, viewpoints and that feeling of being at the southernmost tip of the continent. In March, the Park is especially enjoyable because there is still plenty of daylight to walk around without rushing, and the environment begins to have that transitional aesthetic that makes every view look different. It's an ideal plan to balance the trip: a day of accessible nature, with gentle walks and time to take photos without everything being \u201crushed\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"national<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking for a more intense and different version of the park, the National Park plan with trekking and canoeing is perfect for March.<\/strong><\/a> It combines a guided hike with a water experience that totally changes the perspective of the landscape: it is not just \u201cvisiting\u201d the Park, but living it from the inside, with active sections and moments of contemplation. On a 4 or 5 day itinerary, this tour can replace the classic Park; on a longer itinerary, it can be the ideal upgrade for those who want a more memorable and adventurous experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Canoeing<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Conventional Fuegian Lakes: the scenic day that completes the trip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To add up to great scenery and a very scenic experience, Fuegian Lakes<\/strong> is a plan that fits perfectly in March.<\/a> It is the typical day that gives \u201camplitude\u201d to the trip: you leave the immediate circuit of Ushuaia and get into postcards of route, mountain range and viewpoints that feel pure Patagonia. It is an ideal excursion to do after a hike or a sailing trip, because it allows you to rest your body without giving up incredible views. Besides, it is usually the favourite day for those who want to come back with panoramic pictures and the feeling of \u201chaving seen Tierra del Fuego for real\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Horseback riding in Ushuaia: a different plan to experience Patagonia at a different rhythm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you want to add a different excursion, other than trekking or sailing, Horseback Riding is a great option for March.<\/strong><\/a>. It is a quieter (but very authentic) way to connect with the Fuegian landscape: you enjoy the route, the environment and the pace of the experience. It works very well for couples, families or travellers who want to add \u201csomething Patagonian\u201d without being too physically demanding, and it is usually a great alternative to balance the itinerary if you already have a day of hard hiking or a full day outing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
