Itinerary
The Laguna Esmeralda is one of the most impressive natural destinations in Tierra del Fuego. Surrounded by a majestic landscape of mountains and Tierra del Fuego forests, its name comes from the emerald green color of its waters, which reflect the purity and serenity of the environment. The trail to the lagoon is a unique experience for lovers of trekking and nature. Along the way we also see the beaver dams and learn about the history of the beaver, an introduced animal, and its current impact on the ecosystem. We come across various birds representative of the environments we will be crossing. Finally, after a pleasant walk, we arrive at the incredible Laguna Esmeralda where you can admire its striking blue-green color due to its glacial origin. Here we take a break. We will have time to take photos, walk along the coast of the lagoon and regain energy with a delicious picnic on the shores of the lagoon and then return on our way to the city.

Thank you for the incredible experience you provide, loved the city, the tours and the people! I would definitely go back to take the walks I haven't done yet, or at another station. Thank you 🙏

Esperamos te receber novamente para viver Ushuaia em outra estação e conhecer os passeios que ficaram pendentes 🐧🏔️
Explore Tierra de fuego is an agency of a local family, which makes the experience feel very authentic, they are super good, they answer all your questions both in people and whats, we took 3 tours with them, the National Park, Emerald Lagoon and see penguins, the truth each better than the previous one, never stopped surprising us, the truth we had a very hollow experience and I would recommend them 100%
¡Gracias! 🙌 Que hayan confiado en nosotros para los 3 tours. Somos un equipo local que ama mostrar Tierra del Fuego como la vivimos nosotros. ¡Los esperamos de vuelta en Ushuaia! 🌿
Excellent experience, super recommended. The guide Fran is very friendly and knowledgeable about the place, which makes the journey to the Emerald Lagoon very enjoyable, fun and an unforgettable experience. Added to that is the great natural beauty of the place, the sense of freedom and the pure air enjoyed.
¡Gracias por compartirlo! Qué lindo saber que viviste así la Laguna Esmeralda con Fran y todo lo que transmite el lugar. Te esperamos en Explore para otra experiencia en Ushuaia 🙌
Great guide who took us the “hard” way up and the easy way down. Great knowledge of guide and sandwich was lovely.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the trek in Ushuaia and the guide’s knowledge throughout the excursion. Hope to see you again in Tierra del Fuego 🙌
I had a great time with my guide Fran! He selected a route off the beaten track whenever possible to avoid other groups. So we could enjoy the nature more calmly and without rushing. Fran explained a lot about plants and animals along our way. He also shared how it is living in Ushuaia as a local.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed nature in Ushuaia and Fran’s guidance along the route. Hope to see you again in Tierra del Fuego 🙌
Great experience in contact with nature in a very beautiful place, outside the traditional Ushuaia route.
Obrigada por compartilhar! Ficamos felizes que você tenha aproveitado a conexão com a natureza na Laguna Esmeralda, uma experiência diferente em Ushuaia. Esperamos você para mais aventuras na Terra do Fogo 🙌
It was an awesome experience. The guide (Juanse) was very knowledgeable and detailed in explaining the sights along the trek.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the Laguna Esmeralda trek and Juanse’s guidance. Hope to see you again in Ushuaia for another Tierra del Fuego adventure 🙌
Thank you Violet for your patience and company, it was a lovely trail and view!
Thanks for sharing this! 💙 That trail has such beautiful views, glad you enjoyed it along the way. Hope to see you again!
This trekking is beautiful from start to finish. Beautiful landscapes until you reach a lagoon, which appears before one in an impressive way. Our guide was Juanse, a genius! He patiently explained various things along the way and always waited for whoever wanted to take pictures or videos. I made several excursions with Explore, an excellent agency, from those who advise you on WhatsApp to guides and transporters. Guaranteed timeliness and experience. Thank you Explore, I loved meeting Ushuaia with you!
¡Muchas gracias por tu comentario! Nos alegra que hayas disfrutado el trekking y la laguna 🙌 Le vamos a compartir tus palabras a Juanse. Gracias por elegir Explore para conocer Ushuaia, ¡te esperamos en la próxima!
