Ushuaia: The World's Southernmost City
Ushuaia — the southernmost city on Earth at 54°S — sits at the end of the Andes where the mountains meet the Beagle Channel; the gateway to Antarctica, the Tierra del Fuego national park, and the Beagle Channel wildlife make it one of the world's most dramatically positioned cities
Cape Horn: The End of the World
Cape Horn — the southernmost point of South America, on an island belonging to Chile — is one of the most legendary geographic points on Earth; the Drake Passage, the Roaring Forties, and the thousands of ships and sailors lost in the waters around Cape Horn make it a place of extraordinary historical and emotional resonance
Ushuaia as Antarctica Gateway: The Last Continent
Ushuaia is the embarkation point for the vast majority of the world's Antarctic cruises; the combination of the Drake Passage crossing, the first sight of icebergs, and the Antarctic continent itself makes the journey from Ushuaia to Antarctica one of the world's most extraordinary travel experiences
Ushuaia in Winter: The World's Southernmost Ski Resort
Ushuaia in winter (June-September) transforms into a ski destination — the Cerro Castor ski resort, the city's blue-dark winter light, and the extraordinary atmosphere of the most remote ski resort on Earth attract a dedicated winter tourism market
Ushuaia's Table: King Crab and the Southern Ocean
Ushuaia's food scene is defined by the extraordinary seafood of the Beagle Channel — the centolla (Patagonian king crab), the cholgas (mussels), and the merluza negra (Patagonian toothfish) make the city's restaurants a destination in their own right
Driving to the End of the World: Patagonia to Tierra del Fuego
The overland journey from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia — following the Ruta 3 for 3,079 km through the flat Patagonian steppe to the Strait of Magellan ferry crossing and then south to the end of the world — is South America's greatest road trip
Tierra del Fuego National Park: Subantarctic Wilderness
The Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego — 63,000 hectares of subantarctic forest, lakes, and channels at the tip of South America — is Argentina's only national park with a coastline on the Pacific; the Lapataia Bay, the lenga beech forests, and the Beagle Channel shoreline make it unlike any other Argentine park
Beagle Channel Wildlife: The Southern Ocean's Edge
The Beagle Channel and its islands are home to extraordinary concentrations of subantarctic wildlife — Magellanic penguins, rock cormorants, South American sea lions, and the occasional orca; the boat tours from Ushuaia provide close encounters with these species in the channel's dramatic mountain setting
