Tierra del Fuego Snow Experience
Description
At 9 am, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Ushuaia and start driving along National Route 3. This road, which crosses one of the most beautiful areas of Tierra del Fuego, will take us to the valley of Tierra Mayor.
When we get there, we'll start walking with our snowshoes across the snowy scenery of its surroundings. After we've spent 1 hour exploring the area with our snowshoes, we'll prepare for an exhilarating adrenaline rush as we embark on a snowmobile adventure that'll take us around a thrilling 3-mile (5-kilometer) circuit.
Then we'll enjoy a demonstration of mushing or sledding pulled by husky dogs. We'll learn tons of fun facts about this ancient practice, and we'll be able to meet the friendly husky dogs. Then, we'll return to the shelter, where we'll have a comforting lunch that'll include a mountain stew, an empanada, a dessert, and a drink - the best way to warm up!
Finally, we'll return to your hotel in Ushuaia, where we should arrive at 5 pm.
