THE MAJESTIC

OJO DEL ALBINO

This trek is characterized by being demanding, but a unique opportunity to get to know 2 iconic places in the area: Laguna Esmeralda and Ojo del Albino Glacier. Our day starts so early that it gives us the possibility of reaching Laguna Esmeralda before the rest of the excursions from Ushuaia arrive.

A challenging trek with stunning scenery, which we describe as a true challenge with a great reward.

Do you think 18km in one day can be too much? We offer you «Scenic Loop», an alternative designed for those who would prefer to do this trek in two days with an overnight stay in a mountain dome.
