Ushuaia

 

This week we headed to the very South of Argentina, fondly referred to as ‘the end of the world’ to explore this part of Tierra del Fuego. As cold as it was beautiful, we were lucky to go on several gorgeous hikes to really enjoy the nature down here. This is the closest city to Antarctica, only 1,100 km away.

Here are a few pictures from our days in the Tierra del Fuego national park:

**a hint to anyone who wants to go to Ushuaia in the future and uses this as a reference: only spend 1 day in the park, there’s lots of other free hiking trails near the city that cost much less.

We also passed a day hiking the Martial Glacier mountain for a gorgeous view of the Beagle channel and surrounding areas.

And finally, to give our feet a rest, we did the traditional boat tour down the Beagle channel compete with views of birds and sea lions. 

The natural beauty of Ushuaia, a port town surrounded by glaciers and “snow mountains” was indescribable. We greatly enjoyed our time in the ‘Southernmost city of the world.
