WHY USHUAIA IS WORTH THE VISIT

Ushuaia is the ideal starting point for travelers en-route to a Patagonian adventure in the Tierra del Fuego National Park. This marvelous park is a perfect example of the Andean - Patagonian forests of southern Argentina and makes for wonderful excursions. With such a fantastic landscape to explore, various outdoor activity options are also on offer, with trekking, horse-riding, sport-fishing, mountain-biking, mountaineering, skiing and sailing along the Beagle Channel to Cape Horn and the Antarctic Continent amongst the many adventure sports on offer.

For a glance at Ushuaian history, a ride on the End of the World Train is a must. Once used to transfer prisoners to the labor camp near the city, the train route begins on the outskirts of the city and slices through beautiful Patagonian landscapes – rich and diverse forests; winding rivers flowing through smooth valleys and glistening white mountains reflecting into the blue waters. There is also a stop at the beautiful La Macarena waterfall which shoots through lush green vegetation and from here an excursion can be made to a small native village which is characteristic of the settlements of the indigenous peoples who inhabited the land before European arrival.

Anyone interested in Patagonian history will be kept very busy at the city’s numerous historical museums. The End of the World Museum specializes in the history and anthropology of Ushuaia and the surrounding region, while the Ushuaia Ex-Penitentiary/Jail for Relapsing Criminals now displays fascinating insight into the history of this group of people who made the city what it is today. This ex-prison building also houses the Police Museum, the Antarctic Museum and the Maritime Museum.

Overall, there is an abundance of stupendous sights in the Ushuaia region: snow covered glaciers, colonies of busy penguins, lush green forests of indigenous trees and fantastic landscapes combining a spectrum of rich colors.

DONT JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

Yes, thank you! We had a fantastic time and Argentina is a very beautiful country - Ushuaia is a must do and to walk up the glacier must not be missed!

USHUAIA FACTS

* The name Ushuaia comes from the language of the Yámana people, the southernmost group of Selk’nam Indians who arrived to the region about 10,000 years ago.

* The first house constructed in Ushuaia was a pre-assembled 3 bedroom home prepared in 1870 for Reverend Thomas Bridges. One bedroom was for his family, a second for a Yámana couple, and a third served as the chapel.

* The penal colony established in 1873 was actually an attempt to establish Argentine sovereignty over Tierra del Fuego by securing permanent Argentina residents.

* The common site of trees growing in one direction, ‘flag-trees’, is due to the strong winds that whip the city.
