Sail and Ski on the Glaciers

SKI & SAIL DARWIN RANGE AND GORDON ISLAND

Embark on one of Patagonia’s wildest and most adventurous expeditions: a 12-day sailboat journey through the Beagle Channel to Gordon Island and the towering Darwin Range. This tour offers the incredible experience of skiing down pristine, untouched mountains, descending directly from the sailboat and returning to it, while exploring legendary landscapes such as Mount Shipton, Mount Darwin, and many other peaks that remain unnamed.

Gordon Island offers endless opportunities to make this journey an unforgettable adventure: untouched slopes, unexplored summits, and unparalleled views. Combine the best skiing and splitboarding in Tierra del Fuego with exquisite local cuisine. The sailboat will be chosen based on the group size, and all vessels are equipped with beds, a kitchen, bathroom, and shared dining area. While space is limited, living on a sailboat in such a remote and wild environment is a truly unique experience.
