About this tour

Are you looking for a real challenge?

If you`re already familiar with hiking and want to take your Ushuaia adventure to the next level, this is the trip for you. We invite you on an expedition that has it all: a full-day tour that will test you and reward you with landscapes that very few people ever see. Forget about conventional paths; this is pure mountain hiking.

Our route begins on familiar terrain but quickly veers into the wild. We`ll leave the Twin Lagoons behind to begin the real ascent to Cerro Verde. From its summit, you`ll not only get 360° views, but we`ll also begin the most exciting part: a hike along the edge of the mountain, with valleys on both sides and the Andes Mountains as a backdrop.

The descent will take us to a dreamlike spot: Laguna Raquel, located 600 meters above sea level, well beyond the vegetation limit. A pristine and quiet place where we`ll have lunch, surrounded by the immensity of Cerro Negro. To complete the circuit, we`ll cross the valley until we find Laguna de los Perros, the last jewel of this unforgettable tour.
