An adventure that will take us to discover the secrets of a solitary lighthouse, a shipwreck from 40 years ago, a traditional bakery, and a historic ranch, revealing unknown stories of Tierra del Fuego.

The tour departs early from Ushuaia via National Route 3. After crossing the Andes Mountains through Garibaldi Pass, we'll stop in Tolhuin (heart of the island) to visit the iconic Panadería La Unión bakery.

At noon, we'll take Provincial Route "A" towards Cabo San Pablo. There we'll hike to an abandoned lighthouse on an isolated hill, spotting guanacos along the way, and discover the ship El Desdémona, wrecked in 1985 on the shores of the Argentine Sea.

The final stop will be at Estancia Rolito, a family-owned sheep ranch preserving ovine traditions. Ani, Pepe and their children will welcome us to share their pioneering rural tourism lifestyle.
