Every land has its own secrets but not everyone is chosen to know them. A lighthouse in a lonely cape, a mysterious sunken ship for 40 years, and a distinguished antique estancia are some of the icons that reveal the unknown stories of Tierra del Fuego. During the morning we go to the Provincial Route “A”, where we take a gravel road and visit the Estancia Rolito. This lovely ranch, that keeps the spirit of a family business based on sheep farming tradition, is the first ranch to open its gates to rural tourism. Here we take a pause for a delightful tea with home-made cakes and cookies. We continue heading towards the Atlantic Ocean and the San Pablo Cape. There, we hike up to an isolated mountain with an abandoned lighthouse at the end.
Climbing to the top of this beacon, our guests can appreciate The Desdemona, an abandoned ship from almost 40 years ago which invites us to sail through time. After exploring this mysterious giant, we visit local fishermen who will invite our guests to enjoy a home-made lunch with fresh fish at their house.
This excursion may suffer variations due to weather conditions.

Departing from the tourist dock in Ushuaia, we drive in our buses towards northeast along Nationals route 3 & J, the appealing road to Estancia Harberton. This is the first farm on the island, founded in 1886 by the Anglican missionary Thomas Bridges, and it is located 90 kms from Ushuaia, on the Beagle Channel.
We sail from Harberton harbor to Martillo Island, a 15 minutes ride on a semi-rigid boat (vessel capable of navigation in the area). On the island, we walk for 1 hour along Gentoo and Magellanic penguins, always with a guide, experiencing a unique adventure.
Martillo Island is part of the Estancia Harberton, and home to Magellanic penguins between September and April. They share the habitat with other birds, such as skúas (their main predator), petrels, cormorants, vultures and South American terns.
Finally, we returned to Ushuaia city by bus.
