Take a hike up Glaciar Vinciguerra in Ushuaia

What you'll do

The Vinciguerra Glacier trekking is a full day outing, 14 km round trip and about 2/3 hours of walking uphill, with steep slopes alternating with flat parts. It is an activity of medium difficulty, for which you need to be in good physical condition, you don't need to be an athlete but you need to be able to maintain a constant walking pace, you don't have to go fast but constant. Once the ascent is finished we arrive at the lagoon of the icebergs where you can see the glacier in the background. We continue bordering the lagoon until we reach the glacier. The glacier is in retreat so you can always see different formations on the ice. In the summer season we put on our crampons and helmets and go up to make a mini trekking on the glacier. We have a different view of the place and the glacier, we share a nice moment, take some pictures, eat lunch and return the same way.
