Walk on snowshoes to scenic viewpoints, ride a two-seater snowmobile on groomed trails, enjoy a traditional dog sled outing, and traverse broad white plains on a tracked vehicle.

ITINERARY

Pick-up takes place at 8:30 AM at your hotel in Ushuaia, followed by a short transfer to Tierra Mayor Valley. After a safety briefing and gear check, the day begins with a guided snowshoe walk of about 1 hour and 30 minutes through lenga woodland and open snowfields, reaching wide viewpoints over the Fuegian landscape.

Continue with a guided circuit on two-seater snowmobiles, covering roughly 5 kilometers on marked winter tracks across valleys and frozen peatlands. Then meet the huskies for a traditional dog sled ride along a dedicated snowy trail. To reach more remote corners of the valley, board a comfortable tracked 4×4 vehicle and glide across the snow-covered plains.

Around midday, lunch is served in a heated dome. The usual menu features an empanada, a hot mountain stew, and dessert, accompanied by tea or coffee. Vegetarian options are available on request. Beverages are not included. In the afternoon, enjoy time for tobogganing or a relaxed walk in the surroundings. Return to Ushuaia is scheduled for about 4:30 PM.

Please note that the sequence of activities may be adjusted according to weather, snow conditions, and operational or safety needs.
