Great Lakes – 1 hour flight

Fly over the Fuegian lakes by helicopter

The experience begins by flying over the bay of Ushuaia , gaining altitude to enter the Olivia River Valley , appreciating the majestic Mount Olivia and the characteristic Mount Cinco Hermanos .

In the middle of this white and inhospitable environment, we crossed the impressive Carbajal valley , accessing a second mountain range that houses, like a natural jewel, a captivating mirror of water, called Laguna Esmeralda for its extraordinary color.

The tour continues taking us into the interior of the island of Tierra del Fuego until we reach the head of Lago Escondido . From there, we also flew over the Santa Laura, San Ricardo and Margarita lagoons. We observe the town of Tolhuin, in the heart of the island, and border Lake Fagnano, one of the 5 largest in South America.

Cerro Cornú , one of the highest mountains in the area, will be the gateway to Puerto Almanza, a small town of artisanal fishermen. There we landed on a small street that runs parallel to the Beagle Channel and that seemed to be the only hint of civilization among so much natural exuberance.

Then, we begin our return along the coast, seeing the Estancia Túnel and, in the distance, the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse , located on a rocky, firm and solitary archipelago in the middle of the Beagle Channel. Don’t unbuckle your seatbelt, the adventure isn’t over yet. Just before reaching your destination, you will be able to enjoy a unique and unrepeatable moment at the top of the Andes Mountains . In the middle of that extremely cold immensity, you will land on a mountain; You will be able to descend from the helicopter and appreciate an indescribable environment from which the most incredible and southern images emerge with the Andes Mountains right in front of your eyes.
