Home  /  Destinations  /  Ushuaia

This is the southernmost city on the planet. Due to its location near the South Pole, it has approximately eighteen hours of sunlight in the summer, whereas in the winter, it only has seven or eight. But this does not prevent tourists from visiting it once and again.
A tourist destination indeed, Ushuaia is chosen for the practice of hiking, horse riding, mountain biking, sport fishing and the most spectacular voyages along the Beagle Channel and Lapataia Bay in Tierra del Fuego National Park. The prison at end of the world is another tourist attraction.

In the winter, visitors may enjoy skiing and rides on sleds pulled by dogs at Cerro Castor. Its modern chairlifts and its school have turned it into one of the best ski centers in south hemisphere.
