Itinerary
Our first stop will be at the End of the World Train Station, where in addition to being the boarding point for passengers boarding the train, it will be a time to take photos of the southernmost narrow gauge train on the planet. Both the locomotives and the environment, and its hall full of history are worth visiting. In this place you can have a delicious coffee or tea, with house specialties, and learn all about the history of the train and the Presidio of Ushuaia. Those who have not obtained their pass to board the train will be able to do so at this time.
Our first stop will be Bahía Ensenada Zaratiegui, where you can stamp your passport in the southernmost scam on the planet, and look at the green beaches, whose details we will tell you in situ. This stop takes place from November to April, and under certain conditions you can extend the visiting time at other sites if the park management decides to close it for repairs or weather conditions.
From the bay, we will continue on our way to Acigami Lake, another of the places that are worth knowing and feeling up close. With the majesty of the Guanaco and Cóndor Hills on its sides, we will learn about native flora species, as well as we will see birds that you will not be able to see in other places on the planet. We will do a short walk to see native flora and fauna, which will be a very attractive experience!
Did you know that National Route 3 ends at the last place we will visit in the protected area? We will arrive there as the highlight of the day's adventure. From Bahía Lapataia we will walk along its footbridges that will lead us to archaeological sites, a legacy of our Yagan aborigines, as well as we will have panoramic views in front of us that are worth knowing.
After visiting Lake Acigami, we will continue to the Mirador de Laguna Verde, easily accessible, where we will descend from the vehicle and walk there 5 minutes. This stop can be replaced for longer in Bahía Lapataia if the national park management decides to close it for repairs. It is an ideal time to take the best photos, contemplate the beauties of the colors of the body of water, dyed with the forest that flows into the lagoon, and the mountains as ideal decoration of the landscape.

Kaitek Viajes is more than recommended.
We booked the tour with Kaitec Viajes. We were caught at the hotel by Noelia's guide on the agreed schedule. The National Park is very beautiful, the mountains covered by snow, the peaceful sea, the serene lake, a different reality from our daily life. It was a good experience to feel nature preserved, to feel free, to be able to breathe a clean air. We highlight the work of the Kaitec team: Noelia, polite, kind and prestigious; the caring and courteous driver
Beautiful excursion. Gabriel always very attentive
Beautiful train ride, then by minibus stops in idyllic places, very beautiful scenery, nice guide
Excellent experience especially when time is short. The tour has only a 20 minute trek in the forest. Rest is by bus. A full trek tour may take multiple days. So a great choice for a quick 5 hour journey through the park. The train ride at the end is about an hour and a highlight of the tour especially when it stops at the waterfall
Everything spectacular really the best recommendations and attentions received from the sun. Impeccable service
Excellent guides!! It is the second time I do national park and Silvia's visit was excellent, totally different.... He made us a hike to the lake, which was beautiful. Super recommended
Very fun tour. Our guide Gaston was very good! Super recommended, it is half day for all ages, light hikes, you see flowers and fauna. There are viewpoints and the rest center is good.
Our excursion to Tierra del Fuego National Park with Kaitek Travel was undoubtedly a spectacular experience. Every corner of the park is incredibly beautiful, with landscapes that leave you breathless. The combination of the tour in the park with the End of the World Train was perfect and allowed us to enjoy the whole tour to the fullest. Special mention to the guides, who were real geniuses. They knew a lot and their passion for the place was contagious. I want to highlight the flexibility and, above all, the human quality of the entire Kaitek Travel team. From the start, they were attentive and willing, making the experience even more enjoyable and special. Fully recommended! If you are looking for an excursion full of beauty, professionalism and warmth, this is the ideal choice.
Excellent service. Super friendly guides. Very nice tour on the train. I'd add more walks in the park. The rather short stops
