Tierra del Fuego National Park is one of the few accessible parts of Tierra del Fuego. Due to the fact that tourist buses come here from Ushuaia, there are also relatively many tourists. You can also camp here and go on several circuits. Probably the most famous walk is the road to the bay of Bahia Lapataia, where the famous road 3 ends. The sign with the sign Alaska 18,000 kilometers speaks for itself.

Laguna Negra

Roads and tourist buses run all the way to Bahia Lapataia itself. Of course, it is better to get off earlier and go through a series of turns first to see the black lagoon Negra.

Beaver dikes

The path will also take you to the beaver dikes. As a result of their activities, large parts of the forest are withered or drowned.

Beaches of Fire Land

You can continue along the bay for a while and enjoy the rugged landscape. Sometimes the sun shines sometimes the surrounding hills are dusted with snow.
