OVERVIEW

“Fire & Snow” in Ushuaia offers a one-of-a-kind winter experience that blends adventure and gastronomy amid the breathtaking snowy scenery of Tierra del Fuego. The journey begins with a thrilling nighttime excursion through Tierra Mayor Valley, following torch-lit trails deep into the magical forest.

At a rustic mountain cabin, guests are welcomed by the warmth of open fires and the inviting aroma of traditional Argentine cuisine cooked over flame. The menu features mouthwatering skewers, hearty stews, hot mulled wine, and the signature “Lumberjack’s Coffee,” all enjoyed to the sound of live guitar music that enhances the cozy, festive atmosphere.

The return trip offers flexibility, with options including snow sleds, snow vehicles, or snowshoes—allowing each guest to choose their own adventure. Led by bilingual guides, Fire & Snow guarantees a safe, immersive, and unforgettable winter night in the southernmost city on Earth.
