We invite you discover a hidden side of Ushuaia with our Vinciguerra Glacier trekking excursion, which will take you off the beaten touristic roads, to an area of a great appeal.

Highlights

- ✓Expert bilingual guides with in-depth local knowledge

Insider tips
- ★Start early to maximize daylight in this southern latitude; winter daylight is extremely limited, so confirm seasonal availability before booking
- ★Bring a good camera with a wide-angle lens – the scale of the glacier and valley is impossible to capture on phone cameras
- ★Wear waterproof, layered clothing; Tierra del Fuego weather changes rapidly, and glacier proximity creates wind chill
- ★Ask your guide about wildlife en route – guanacos and Magellanic woodpeckers are commonly spotted in the valley
Good to know
- •8-hour duration includes walking time, so fitness level should support 4–5 hours of active trekking with elevation gain
- •Bring sturdy hiking boots with good ankle support; terrain is rocky and can be muddy
- •Sun protection essential – UV reflection off ice is intense; sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses are mandatory
- •Meeting point and pickup logistics: confirm departure location in Ushuaia (likely city center or hotel) with supplier after booking
