Half day regular excursion to Tierra del Fuego National Park with English speaking guide An English speaking guide will pick you up from the hotel in a regular transfer to Tierra del Fuego National Park. Situated 12 km west of Ushuaia, this unique park with maritime coast occupies 63,000 hectares where trees such as lengas, cheery trees, ñires, calafates, and notros – all native of Tierra del Fuego – live together with flora such as orchids, violets and senecios. Continuing on the last stretch of National Route 3 where the road draws to a thin path as it climbs the skirt of the mountain; passing native vegetation arriving at the River Lapataia. At the cross of the route, the road becomes winding and splashed with brush vegetation and panoramic views, for example, the Laguna Verde. As the visitors start the final part of the trip towards Lapataia Bay, they can see where indigenous people of the area left their testimony – “los concheros” – incredible archeological sites. Before returning to Ushuaia, there is one last stop at Lago Roca, whose varying colors change with the seasons. Offered year round. This excursion leaves between 8:30am and 9:00am from the hotel. Entrance fee to the National Park included.
