We head in our modern minibuses towards the National Route, on the way to the legendary Harberton Ranch, always accompanied by our specialized guides. Once there, we will have a guided visit to the historic center and then we will sail from the Harberton dock to Martillo Island, a 15-minute ride, in a semi-rigid boat (ship suitable for navigation in the area - ZODIAK). On the island, we will walk for 1 hour between Papuan and Magellanic penguins, always with a guide, experiencing a unique adventure.
The penguins settle on the island during the summer, sharing the habitat with other birds. Isla Martillo, in the Beagle Channel, is part of Estancia Harberton, and home to the penguins
Upon returning to the ranch, we will visit the museum of birds and mammals. On our return to the city of Ushuaia on route J, we will make a last stop to see the flag tree. Icon of the place for adopting this form due to the action of the wind.

To speak of the end of the world is to speak of Ushuaia. It is the southernmost city on the planet. Due to its location close to the South Pole, it has approximately eighteen hours of light in summer, while in winter, only seven or eight, but this does not mean that it is no longer a tourist destination.
The city is surrounded to the west by Mount Martial and to the east by Mount Olivia and Cinco Hermanos.
Our experience seeks to personalize the service to the maximum, ensuring that our traveling friends can contemplate a very complete trekking in the best possible way. We arrived at this magnificent place, crossing a valley, a peat bog and ascending the rocky slope of a mountain. The views of the glacier and the Laguna de los Témpanos are unmissable. We begin the walk in the valley of Andorra, where after crossing ancient peat bogs we enter the Fuegian forest, gaining altitude until we reach the shores of the Laguna de los Témpanos where we will have impressive views of the Vinciguerra Glacier. After exploring the surroundings and touching the ice, we will enjoy the box lunch and begin the return walk.
Leaving the city of Ushuaia, we take National Route 3 towards the area of the winter centers. We descend in one of the centers, to equip ourselves properly and thus start the walk to the area where the beavers live. Along the way we can see several active beaver lodges, where, if we remain quiet, we can watch this animals with crepuscular habits, while knowing their history and their impact on these lands. After the sighting, we will go back to the refuge to have dinner.
Then we return to the hotel.
