We leave Ushuaia towards the Northeast, to meet Southern Andes Range. After just one hour, we leave the vehicle nearby Garibaldi Pass to start a walk to reach the top of this mountain chain. At an altitude of just 600 meters, the forest is left behind and the trail disappears, but we carry along the mountainside enjoying unmatched views of Lake Escondido and Fagnano. The “Twin”, “Raquel” and “Los Perros” lagoons, and the high mountain landscapes are sufficient reward for hikers who venture to walk out of the beaten path in search of places that are both wild and pristine. The trekking ends after descending the Northern slope of the mountain, crossing a dense forest only interrupted by huge beaver dams. If we are lucky enough, we might be able to spot them before hopping on the vehicle.
