Excursions

 

Deaprting from Ushuaia and again on the National route #3 (Pan-American) towards the north of the island, to reach the Fuegian Andes through valleys covered by peat bogs.
We will cross the Carbajal, the Huskies, Tierra Mayor and Las Cotorras valleys, where it is possible, during the winter to practice the croos-country ski style. The next point of the tour will be the Garibaldi Pass (450 mts over the sea level), which we will use cross the Mountain range of the Andes, with the beautiful view of the Lakes Escondido and Fagnano.
From here we will start the way down to the other side of the Andes and will stop at Petrel "hosteria" besides the Escondido Lake, after a short stop will continue to the sawmills area, specifically to the Martinez sawmill (out of operation this days ), at the coast of Fagnano lake and after visiting the Fagnano lake we will go back to Las Cotorras valley to taste the typical fueguian lamb barbecue.
