Snow and Fire (snowmobiles and snowshoes)

Season July to September

If you’ve ever dreamed of being in a snowy forest at night and living a unique sensory experience—where every sense is heightened by the surroundings and the silence of the night—then this is your chance. Sight, touch, and hearing will be the stars of this unforgettable adventure.

To live this great adventure in this remote corner of the world, you will be picked up from your accommodation and taken to the winter center in the valley, located 21 km from downtown Ushuaia. Once there, the guides will explain how the activities will unfold.

The guides will help us strap on the snowshoes to walk safely and begin a peaceful, scenic 30-minute walk across the valley in the heart of the winter night. A magical trail will lead us into the forest, made up of subantarctic trees such as lengas, ñires, and coihues.

We’ll return to the dome where the cook will be waiting for us with a hearty stew, mulled wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. Dinner will be accompanied by live guitar music, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.

After this satisfying dinner,the guides will provide instructions and safety guidelines for operating the snowmobiles, marking the start of the second part of our great adventure. The snowmobiles are two-seaters. We’ll begin the ride under the stars—and the moon, if we’re lucky enough to have a clear sky—following a 4 km circuit through valleys and ancient peat bogs.

Upon arriving at the main lodge, we will return to the city of Ushuaia, reminiscing about this wonderful experience.

Important:

• The order of the activities may be subject to change.
• Please wear warm clothing, as the activity takes place outdoors—preferably snow gear.
