Tierra del Fuego 7-day guided ski tour
Tierra del Fuego has the best lines, scenery and ski descents for those who love ski touring. Join Sebastian, a local AAGM guide, on this 7-day backcountry skiing trip!
Description
Spend 7 days in the best southerner spots to ski that Tierra del Fuego has for you. The stunning tree lines, landscapes, mountains and woods make Tierra del Fuego’s surroundings a unique place for backcountry skiing.
As you may know, Tierra del Fuego is the southernmost province in Argentina and is therefore called “the end of the world”. Its large slopes offer us backcountry itineraries for all levels of skiers.
Some of the best places where we will go during this 7-day expedition are:
- The Olum valley,
- Mount Alvear,
- Martial glacier
- Cerro Bonete
You can find the complete day-by-day itinerary at the end of this page. It is also a perfect trip for expert skiers in search of exploring the Fuegian Mountains with boards. Anyway, all my tours are adequate to each guest. I can plan an adventure according to your fitness level and expectations.
Finally, let me tell you that if you don’t have too much time in Tierra del Fuego I can offer this one-day ski tour. That way you will at least visit the main skiing spots of the area.
So, are you coming to Tierra del Fuego next winter? Get in touch with me as soon as possible. Let’s plan your perfect adventure in this backcountry skiing paradise!

The trip was great! Sebastian\'s colleague Ignacio catered it exactly as I have envisioned the trip to be according to my skills and background experience. He was patient and helpful when I struggled in certain moments and he taught me a lot of important safety details on various aspects of the activity, which was what I expected. Overall, a fantastic three days and will definitely return if I have time next year!

My friend and I went for a day backcountry skiing to Martial Galcier. We had a brilliant time, the guide was a champion!
Sebastian was a great guide! We felt very safe and it was really fun getting to know him. We liked him so much we decided we would do a second trip while we are in town. If I ever come back to Ushuaia, I will definitely track him down for more trips
