Laguna de los Tres

Reviewed By andreaa277 - Sydney, Australia

This is an amazing hike , all the terrain leading up to it (we started at Hosteria Pillar ) and of course the lakes at the top of that very steep climb. Then the walk back to town with the gorgeous (Patagonia emblem) as a backdrop. Start early we encountered crowds on the way back down at about 1pm . Keep in mind you will be sharing this walk with people that are hell bent on getting to the top I presume instagramming and hell bent on getting back down again. Still an amazing day - in summer the days are super long so you don't have to rush.

Parque Nacional Los Arrayanes

Reviewed By sjriceuk - Bristol, United Kingdom

We took the catamaran ferry to the end of the peninsula then enjoyed the 12 km hike back through the forest. The Peninsula contains a large number of ancient myrtles which have created an amazing ancient forest which is well worth a good look. After that the route back takes you through a forest of coihues, cypresses and ñires which again are really interesting. Towards the end of the climb there is an uphill section that takes ypu to some amazing view points the last of which are the best. They are signed posted off to the side of the main past and make sure you take the detour to see them.

Glacier Martial

A marked trail in the center of town leads intrepid souls on a grueling hike up this glacier, for which they are rewarded with spectacular sweeping views of the southernmost tip of the earth.

Reviewed By F1211SVelizabethd - Los Angeles, United States

I stayed in a hotel well up the road that leads to the Glacier so it was a nice hike from there. Although some people do it, I would not consider it safe to walk up the road from Ushuaia because of the nature of the road and lack of pavement for pedestrians. If you're in central Ushuaia, do get a taxi to a spot close to the Glacier (there's an actual tax rank, so you can get a taxi back.) I am not an experienced mountaineer and it was a glorious and not to difficult hike!

Cerro Tronador

Reviewed By globaltrotter_carol - Rotterdam, The Netherlands

I did a two day hike. Started the hike in pampa Linda. The rood to the starting point is only open in the morning, to go to pampa Linda in the afternoon you can only leave this rood. Narrow rood. In the bezinning the hike is easy. After a few km you started climing. It is 15 km to refugio Roca were you can stay for the night. Naar the refugio you can walk to the waterfalls. They are nice. Large refugio. They serve dinner and you can buy a Packed lunch. If you continue thuis hike you will decent rapidly. You will hear the whole time ICE Breaking from the glacier. Really cool. I think you will see 3/4 glaciers, i think it has in Total 8 glaciers but you cannot see them all. After 3/4 km you walk in the woods. Kind of hard lost of trees on the Path. Not an easy hike. I think most of the people need 5 a 6 hours for the 12 km. Really muddy. The last 2 km are easy. Around 4 you have to take a boot then a bus for 3=km and then an other boot and you will arrive hear llao llao. This part is really good organized. When you have bought your boot ticket , boot can be late the rest is smootly. They take care of your backpack in the harbor of llao llao you get it back. Take a warm jacket with you can be a bit cold on board.

Cerros Negro & Monje Trail

Reviewed By Naturaldog - New Haven, United States

~3700 feet (~1100 meters) of net vertical ascent. ~22 km round trip.Lots of volcanic sand/ash and loose rocks on the trail. Footing is not very good in a number of places, especially near the top. Trail is poorly marked in a number of places. A very good idea to have the Maps.me gps app installed on your cellphone. The trail is noted on map.me, which was very helpful to me when I got lost (despite perfect weather), which I did, 4 or 5 times. 2 hours 20 mins for me to ascend, including 2-3 stops to empty volcanic ash from low-cut hiking sneakers. The descent took about 3 hours, mainly because I lost the trail 3-4 times. Best to wear shoes that come up above the ankles to keep sand/ash and small rocks out. This is NOT a hike to do in marginal or bad weather. You will lose the trail, almost certainly. Others have written that the water near the top is drinkable. I would not advise this. Grazing animals, and evidence thereof, is everywhere. Best to bring your own water. I brought 3 liters on a cool day (22 C max), and I ran out of water with an hour still to go to get back to the car. This peak is known for very high winds that can come up suddenly. Be prepared. Enjoy! Not to be missed if the weather cooperates. Great views, solitude, majesty. Just wear the right shoes and bring plenty of water!

Paseo de los Colorados

Reviewed By Sallycp11 - Melbourne, Australia

I’ve already posted about the Seven colours hills and Purmamarca in a seperate post so will just sum up that this 3 km walk is very easy ( although it is at 2,500m) and you can get a little map from the tourist office and walk the 3km Los Colorado Poseo ( you can also drive but walking way better) to see all the colours and layers of the many hills formed from as long as 3-4 million years ago. You can climb some rock stacks fir better views and grab an icy pole and cafe at the end of the loop .

Sendero de Caminatas Arroyo Rama Negra

You can take leisurely walks along the shore of the Rama Negra stream in the delta, go bird watching and observe the beautiful plant life. Easy access to the Rama Negra stream is available through the Interislena public boat line from Tigre town, private boats and taxis, rowboats, kayaks and canoes.
