Emerald Lagoon Private Trekking Tour
Embark on an accessible hike in the southernmost city globally, aiming to reach the stunning Emerald Lagoon. Commencing our journey north from the hotel, a brief 20-minute drive from the city, our guide provides insights into traversing the Lasifashaj Valley. The well-defined path varies with the season, guiding us through peat bogs and rocky landscapes. Continuing through additional forest, we walk alongside the Esmeralda River until we reach the captivating Laguna Esmeralda—a glacial lake renowned for its unique color, influenced by sediment from the Ojo del Albino Glacier. This vibrant hue is exclusive to summer, transforming into a frozen, snow-covered spectacle in winter. Pause to appreciate the Lagoon's beauty while enjoying a box lunch. The return journey retraces familiar terrain, offering a final opportunity to admire the surrounding wonders. Completing our hike, we meet our awaiting vehicle, ready to transport us back to the city of Ushuaia.
