Itinerary
Our adventure begins by picking up our passengers at their accommodations and heading along Ruta 3 towards Park Austral – our year-round winter center – where we will be greeted with a delicious hot chocolate to warm up. Here, we split into groups to enjoy the activities without rush or queues.
With snowshoes on our feet, we start our walk through the forests, where photography enthusiasts will find a majestic setting to capture their images amidst the snowy Andes mountains, snow-covered trails, and numerous attractions to enrich your experience.
The adrenaline rises with a breathtaking 5 km trail on a snowmobile for two fearless adventurers. During this ride, you and your companion will be embraced by the surreal beauty of our Patagonian forests covered in snow. Along the way, you can take turns driving and enjoy the beauty of Patagonian nature to the fullest.
The snowmobile circuit lasts approximately 1 hour, with 35 minutes of preparation and 25 minutes of activity.
After both groups have completed the activities, we’ll have time to enjoy the southern refuge, an incredible place with a very special energy. For those who wish, next to the refuge, as a courtesy, there will be time to “play” in the snow sled. (This activity is subject to significant snowfall to ensure the safety of the “adventurers”. There will be a Park guide present who will grant permission for the snow sledding activity, as safety always comes first).
Whether or not this activity is available, which is complimentary, the setting is undeniably cinematic, so be sure to have your camera ready for lots of photos and videos.
The highlight of the day will be a delicious self-service lunch at the Park Austral Restaurant, filled with Brazilian options such as stroganoff, breaded chicken, rice, beans, salads, and of course, featuring the famous Patagonian lamb on the spit, with 1 dessert included. All options will be served unlimitedly and will leave you wanting more!
To end on a high note, we’ll visit a themed bar-museum with antique motorcycles and taste the only Gin from “Tierra del Fuego”. (Entry to the motorcycle museum and gin tasting is subject to the availability of the venue, as it is not part of the company Brasileiros em Ushuaia).
Next, we’ll enjoy another piece of history by visiting an original car from the Antarctic from the 1960s and various signs that serve as a backdrop for many photos, which will be true “recuerdos” for a lifetime.
After the visit to Park Austral, we head to Cerro Austral, where upon arrival, we’ll be greeted with a stunning view of a unique snow-covered landscape. There, we’ll be welcomed with a delicious hot chocolate to warm up before we embark on our adventure.
Accompanied by a guide, we’ll walk to the Parque das Bóias (Snow Tubing), where you’ll receive your buoy and all safety information to ensure the best experience during the ride.
Our track has 4 different elevations, allowing you to choose the level of excitement that suits you best or even enjoy all of them several times!
You’ll descend the mountain, sliding inside a buoy. This ride is perfect for groups with giant buoys.
With the different elevations, you can compete for the shortest time or even race down different tracks at the same time.
The ride is safe for all ages, and the landing is cushioned by a synthetic mat to ensure the safety of our adventurers.
To go back up to the top, there’s a lift with hooks where you attach your buoy and will be towed back to the track of your choice, where you can get back in line to descend again. So, get ready to descend multiple times and break your own records.
After enjoying all the elevations and having a great time in the snow, we move on to the second best part of the tour, our unlimited pizza meal (drinks not included).
After the meal, we’ll head back to the city with many memories of a day full of adventures.
