To reach Tierra del Fuego National Park, you will pass through some of Ushuaia's suburbs and cross the Pipo River Valley. This National Park was created to protect the southern portion of the sub-Antarctic forest. Today, visitors can enjoy the Andes and the region's forests, rivers, lakes and peat bogs. It is also home to a large variety of birds.
Ensenada Bay offers great views of Redonda Island, with the stunning Chilean islands of Navarino and Hoste as a backdrop. You will travel along a narrow and picturesque route that teems with wildlife, stopping to visit Roca Lake and take a short walk along the coast to learn about the local flora.
Finally, you'll arrive at Lapataia Bay -- the southernmost place in the world that can be reached by road. Indeed, this is where the famous Pan-American Highway ends.
Notes:
It is essential that you wear warm, layered clothing in order to fully enjoy and participate in this excursion. Outer layer should be waterproof and windproof. Bring gloves, a warm hat and a scarf. Tour does not operate on holidays.
