Laguna Esmeralda is a beautiful lake hidden in the middle of the mountains in the southernmost Argentinian province of Tierra del Fuego. If you are coming to Patagonia and love trekking, this spot is a must!
On this half-day trip, we’ll put our rackets on and go through the forest on a less known route to the lake. While snowshoeing, we’ll explore valleys and meadows, and contemplate the stunning views of Sierra Alvear. After two hours of walking, we’ll reach Laguna Esmeralda and enjoy a hot beverage. Finally, after circling the lagoon, we’ll take a different path on our way back.
Please, keep in mind that this trek is moderately difficult. Therefore, it is very important to be physically fit to take part in it. The duration of the walk will be of around 6 hours.
So, does this trek in Laguna Esmeralda sound tempting? Then do not hesitate to send the request and book your place. I will be glad to guide you on this adventure in the Argentinian Patagonia.
Another option could be this trekking excursion that I offer to Martial Glacier, also in Tierra del Fuego. Check it out!

Mountain Guide, GEM-AAGM Ski Guide, UIMLA, AIARE level 2 from Argentina.
I was born and live in Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world! I've been skiing since I was 2 years old, and competed as a ski athlete in a Nordic ski and Biathlon world ski championships, world cups and in the winter Olimpic Games Torino 2006
In 2007 I retired from professional competitions to focus on my guiding career. I trained on rock, ice and mixed climbing skills as well as guiding techniques and became a mountain guide in 2011 at the Argentinean Mountaineering Guides Association (AAGM). In 2017 I completed the guiding courses to become also a certified Ski Mountain Guide GEM-AAGM.
I've done a large number of technical climbs at the Darwin Range and Patagonia while many of those are new lines
