Description
This is an exciting half-day activity that combines low-intensity trekking with kayaking on a meandering river, ideal for those seeking immersion in the nature of Tierra del Fuego without much physical effort.
The adventure begins with a gentle 40-minute hike (through native forests and peat bogs), with each participant carrying a backpack with their 6 kg inflatable boat. The destination is Laguna Mariposa, where the boats are inflated and a safety briefing and paddling technique session are given.
Then begins an hour of paddling downstream, enjoying the calm water while the landscape of the Andes Mountains, with snow-capped peaks and glaciers, surprises you at every turn.
The group stops for lunch on a small river beach, where the Emerald Lagoon stream connects with the Olivia River. The second part of the tour takes place among native forest and shrubs. It's a magical experience with a strong focus on enjoyment and caring for the environment.
