A beautiful hike away from the tourist hotspots of Ushuaia, the Tierra del Fuego National Park and the Glaciar Martial. At the starting point of the hike, you can simply park the car and get ready for the hike. You do not have to pay any entrance, so you have to do without toilets or other offers. Nearby there is a small cafe.
At the beginning of the tour you walk along the course of the Arroyo Grande and then branch off into a completely untouched fairytale forest. In the forest section you have to complete about 400 meters in altitude, which is quite demanding in some sections. The subsoil consists mainly of stony and rooted in the forest floor. In some, especially wet places tree trunks were laid out. At the time of our hike it was quite muddy and the rocks and roots very, very smooth. You definitely need solid hiking boots and possibly hiking poles for the sometimes steep and stony descent.
After a good third of the hike the path branches off again to the Laguna Encantada. You can also set a new destination at short notice. The entire route is signposted throughout and clearly visible with the blue-orange colored markings. The last approximately 150 meters to the Laguna de los Témpanos are steep but on stony and very firm ground. If you want, you can walk past the Laguna on the right, the last few meters to the foot of the Glaciar Vinciguerra. Incidentally, we experienced on the hike spring, autumn and winter, the right clothes including hat and glove is a must.
Have fun.
