Vinciguerra Glacier Hike
Vinciguerra Glacier Hike
We'll pick you up from your hotel in Ushuaia at the indicated time and set off on a half an hour journey to the Andorra Valley, where our hike to the Vinciguerra Glacier will begin.
We'll spend 6 hours trekking across the magnificent wetlands. Eventually, we'll reach the famous High Valley of the La Leche river, which is located in the surroundings of the Vinciguerra Glacier. Then we'll walk along the riverbed until we reach the Laguna de los Témpanos, a beautiful lagoon formed by the melting glacier that will take your breath away!
Here we'll recharge our batteries with a picnic lunch of alfajores, homemade ham and cheese empanadas, fruit and cereal bars. And all this accompanied by a hot tea! After lunch, we'll continue bordering the lagoon until we reach the incredible glacier.
Finally, we'll hike back to the Andorra Valley and return by minibus to your hotel in Ushuaia, arriving eight hours after departure.
