Overview
The Laguna Esmeralda Trekking excursion is one of the most accessible that can be done in the southernmost city in the world. Unique and comforting where the main objective is to reach the Emerald Lagoon.
They pick us up at our lodging heading north, about 20 minutes from the city. Once we arrive the guide will explain that we must cross the Tierra Mayor Valley through a very clear and marked trail depending on the season of the year we are in, we will cross several peat bogs and rocky terrain. Our legs will be all-terrain like 4×4 excursions.
After a little more of the forest, we continue our Trekking Laguna Esmeralda bordering the Esmeralda River until we reach the indescribable Laguna Esmeralda, a small lake of glacial origin, which owes its name to the color given to it by the sediments that come from the Ojo del Albino Glacier. . This color can only be seen in summer since in winter it will be frozen and covered with snow.
While we enjoy the view of the Lagoon we will recharge our batteries by eating a box lunch. We will be able to start our return, where the road will be familiar to us and we will have the last opportunity to appreciate the beauties that surround us. Once the Laguna Esmeralda Trekking is finished, we meet again with the vehicle that will be waiting for us to take us back to the city of Ushuaia.
