The trailhead is only 15 minutes from the city, where the peat bog begins, and multiple wild trails that become more and more challenging appear.
After crossing a river, the path goes deeper into the Fuegian forest, where lengas and guindos accompany you as you move towards the tree line in a 600-meter elevation gain climb.
The last part of the trail takes place on high-mountain terrain with a challenging incline that finishes when we get to Tempanos lagoon. If the weather is favorable and if the group of hikers is in good condition, we will go around the lagoon to approach the Vinciguerra glacier and look at its cracks and moulins.
Afterward, we will take the same trail back to the transfer that will take you to your hotel.

I had an unforgettable experience with Arpon Trekking on the Vinciguerra Glacier and Flood Lagoon excursion in Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego. The team was extremely professional and friendly from the first contact, making sure we were well prepared for the hike. The Vanessa guide demonstrated a great knowledge of the place and conveyed her passion for nature and adventure, which made the experience even more enriching.
The hike itself was challenging but very rewarding, and reaching the lagoon of
the Floes with the Vinciguerra Glacier as background was just stunning. The beauty of the landscape is indescribable: ice, mountains and crystal clear water in perfect harmony. I definitely recommend Arpon Trekking for those looking for a well-guided and authentic adventure in Ushuaia. I look forward to exploring with them again in the future!”
