Itinerary
-
A Scenic Journey Through the Patagonian Andes
- We pick up the passengers from their accommodations and head towards the north of the province along National Route N° 3.
- We cross the Patagonian Andes and witness beautiful landscapes that combine forests, valleys, mountains, and more.
- We make our first stop at Paso Beban Viewpoint in Tierra Mayor Natural Valley and Landscape Reserve, where we learn how the island's peculiar geography works.
- Then, we arrive at the second viewpoint, the famous Garibaldi Pass, from which you can see the Escondido and Fagnano lakes.
- Here, we descend and also have time to take photos.
- Having already crossed the pass, we enter the ecotone, a transition space between the Patagonian forest in the south of the island and the northern steppe, where we will see ñirantales (pure ñire forests) until we reach the lake that cuts the Island in two from Tierra del Fuego: Fagnano Lake, also known as Lake Khami in the Selk'nam language. Fagnano lake is shared with Chile and is part of the Heart of the Island Provincial Reserve; At its bottom is the Fagnano-Magallanes Fault, the union of the South American and Scotia tectonic plates.
- We enjoy a coffee break here, under the impressive landscape and in front of the impressive reflecting pool.
- We continue the journey in Tolhuin, where we eat in a country restaurant, and begin the return to the city of Ushuaia, where the journey ends.
