EXPERIENCE

Welcome to the End of the World, Ushuaia!

We’ll be waiting for you at the meeting point in Ushuaia Port to begin our journey to Tierra del Fuego National Park, which is just 14 km south of the city.

Our first stop will be at the End of the World Train Station, where you’ll embark on a 60-minute journey along the last 7 kilometers of this historic route. This trip recreates the original journey taken by prisoners from Ushuaia’s prison to the slopes of Mount Susana, where they extracted materials for construction. Along the way, you’ll enjoy landscapes of lush forests, crystal-clear rivers, and unique natural settings. You’ll also learn about the region’s first inhabitants, the indigenous Yámana, whose ruins are still visible along the route.

At the end of the train journey, we’ll be waiting for you with the minibus to continue the rest of the tour.

Continuing our journey, we’ll stop to admire the stunning Macarena Falls before entering Tierra del Fuego National Park. As we enter Tierra del Fuego National Park, we’ll explore the Fuegian, or subantarctic, forests, spanning over 63,000 hectares. In this unique environment, we’ll observe various characteristic species such as Shrubs, Beech trees, Ñires, Lenga trees, “Barba de Indio,” and “Farolitos Chinos.”

Our first stop within the park will be at Lapataia Bay, where the legendary Panamerican Highway (Route 3) ends, stretching from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego. You’ll find the iconic “End of the World” sign here. You can take the most emblematic photo with the sign and walk along trails accessible to all ages, enjoying the breathtaking views of the Patagonian fjords and the pristine nature of the bay.

We’ll continue to Laguna Verde, where you’ll enjoy panoramic views of Condor Hill, which marks the border with Chile. Then, we’ll stop at Lake Roca to admire its breathtaking views, featuring the typical Patagonian postcard with lakes, mountains, and forests.

Our last stop, and the most beautiful one for us, will be at Zaratiegui Cove. Here, you can admire Round Island and visit the last postal box of the Argentine Post, the End of the World Post Office, where visitors often stamp their passports and send correspondence or postcards with the famous “End of the World” stamp. Enjoy the serene views of the mountains while you send your postcards to any place on the planet.

At the end of our visit to the park, we’ll return to the Ushuaia city center, having enjoyed an unforgettable tour of history, nature, and unique landscapes in the southernmost part of Argentina.
