Winter Patagonia
This unique trip allows you to discover Patagonia in its quietest, least visited season, during the winter.
The thick snow, dramatic frozen lakes and waterfalls, together with the special southern winter light are highlights of this wintry adventure.
Highlights
The tour takes you to Los Glaciares National Park where the spectacular granite spires of Fitz Roy & Cerro Torre tower above the horizon.
After visiting the Perito Moreno glacier, you can choose to head off for another or extend your stay with a trip to the legendary Tierra del Fuego and Ushuaia - city at the End of the World.
Activities are shown here and are all specially prepared for a special winter experience.
We hike or snowshoe along the trails, depending on snow conditions, to reach the main viewpoints of this stunning area.
General information
Cold winter evenings are spent with a warm drink, by cosy log fires at the lodges.
There are several accommodation options – hostel with shared bathroom, double room or single room with private facilities.
It is possible to extend your time in Ushuaia, from 4 to 5 days, to allow for more winter walks and Nordic skiing, or to head across to Paine in Chile. The example given here is the 4 day extension.
We also offer an excellent winter extentsion to trips to Paine. |
