Panorama Blanco Excursion (During the Day) / Silencio Andino Excursion (At night)
We start this day excursion at 9am and after having picked all passengers up at their hotels we will head to the winter centre located 30 kms away from Ushuaia city centre. We will be waiting for you with a warm beverage and a traditional snack which you can enjoy while we give you a short briefing about the excursions you will participate in and safety indications. This excursion consists of three (3) different adventures:
Dog Sledding: An amazing experience in which our very well trained Mushers will take you inside the snowy forest and the Valley of Tierra del Fuego for you to enjoy the view, while commenting on this millennial activity.
Snow Mobile or 4×4 UTV Drive: Here you will have the choice to select which vehicle you’d prefer to drive and have fun with! Whatever the case, only those over 18 years old are allowed to drive. Otherwise, any of our specialized guides can drive you around the paths of our magical forest.
Snowshoeing: A simple, yet beautiful walk around our valley. A great way to dive into the beauty of the landscape that surrounds us. A trained guide will take you to walk on the frozen peat bog. See the old beaver dams and appreciate the forest and mountains. This walk is on considerably flat terrain so people of all ages can join and enjoy it!
Once you have completed the three activities, we will be waiting for you inside of our warm restaurant to enjoy one of our traditional meals: Chicken on the Disk, or Trout with a side of Risotto.
