EXPERIENCES

Cape Froward - the southernmost point of the continental world - glaciers, humpback whales, Sei whales, southern dolphins, toninas overas, Magellanic penguins... are part of the natural wonders of this southern area of the Strait of Magellan and Tierra del Fuego. In one of the most remote and pristine places on the planet, this full-day trip will make us feel nature in its most natural state. Leaving very early from the offices, we will travel 50 km south of Punta Arenas by bus, and then embark and sail for around 10 hours. We will enjoy a unique landscape surrounded by mountains, glaciers and lenga and coihue forests. The marine life present in the area will never cease to surprise us with its proximity and abundance: sea lions, petrels, cormorants, southern dolphins, etc. They will make us feel that nature is felt and lived here!

Every land has its own secrets but not everyone is chosen to know them: a lighthouse in a lonely cape, a mysterious sunken ship for 40 years and a distinguished antique “estancia” are some of the icons that reveal the unknown stories of Tierra del Fuego. Very early in the morning departure from Ushuaia following National Route 3 and crossing The Andes through the Garibaldi Pass. We stop by the little town of Tolhuin, heart of the island, to visit La Unión Bakery. This is a traditional meeting point for both, locals and visitors, and it is part of the charm of this village. By midday we come to the Provincial Route “A”, where we took a gravel road heading toward the Atlantic Ocean and the San Pablo Cape. At this point, we hiked up to an isolated mountain with an abandoned lighthouse at the end. Climbing to the top of this beacon we will appreciate “Desdemona”, an abandoned ship for almost 40 years ago which invites us to sail through time. It happened on a cold winter morning in1983 when this enormous craft ran aground on the shores of the Argentine Sea. After exploring this mysterious giant, we visit Estancia Rolito. This lovely ranch, that keeps the spirit of a family business based on sheep farming tradition, is the first ranch to open its gates to rural tourism.

In wine’s soul you can see the nature of the place... that is why we invite you to visit the colorful roads surrounded by vineyards and the imposing view of Cordón del Plata whose snow end in the Uco Valley. Located at the foot hill of the Andes, with a unique landscape and an average altitude higher than 1,000 meters, is an ideal place for the production of high quality grapes and wines. That’s why we offer you to visit some of the most impressive wineries in this area.
