About this experience
In this trail of about 10 km (round trip) we will have the chance to experience some of the different environments that Tierra del Fuego Island offers us. We will cross the Fuegian Native Forest, we will get to know the important peat bogs and their beautiful reddish tones and we will walk through the imposing Fuegian Andes.
We will also see the beaver dams and learn about the history of this animal introduced to the island and the impact on the native ecosystem. We will come across a variety of birds representative of the environments we will pass through.
Finally, after a pleasant walk we will arrive at the Laguna Esmeralda where we will be impressed by its bluish green colour due to its glacial origin. Here we will take a break, have time to take pictures, walk along the shores of the Laguna Esmeralda
