This 7-hour day trip in Tierra del Fuego departs from the main office of Kaitek Viajes in Ushuaia. The tour is conducted using 4x4 vehicles with experienced guides and includes a group transfer from local hotels to the starting point. The journey starts by traveling 35 km along National Route 3, then turning onto Provincial Route J for 40 km alongside the Lasifashaj River to reach Laguna Victoria. Here, participants have a country-style breakfast in a natural area linked to the Yámana native canoeists. Laguna Victoria freezes in winter and remains a navigable water body throughout the year. Next, the tour continues to Puerto Almanza, a small fishing village 75 km from Ushuaia on the east coast of the Beagle Channel. Visitors walk through the village and take panoramic photos of the coastal setting. Lunch follows at a classic fisherman’s restaurant overlooking the Beagle Channel where the menu features local seafood, including the Fuegian crab served natural, au gratin, or in butter. The lunch and beverages such as carbonated drinks, tea, coffee, and alcoholic beverages are included. After lunch, the group hikes a trail through lenga forest to reach Cascada del Duende, a waterfall accessible for all ages. The walk lasts about 45 minutes and runs along the river. The final part of the tour follows the coastline of the Beagle Channel, offering views where forest meets water, before returning to Ushuaia. The whole trip is designed to combine nature, local food, and off-road travel in a single day.
