Just 11 km from Ushuaia, Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego is Argentina’s southernmost national park and a showcase of Patagonian wilderness. Covering forests, peat bogs, mountains, and rugged coastline, it offers visitors a chance to hike scenic trails, spot native wildlife like foxes and beavers, and admire dramatic views over the Beagle Channel. The park is also home to the famous End of the World Train and the iconic sign at Lapataia Bay, marking the end of Route 3 and the Pan-American Highway. With accessible paths as well as more challenging treks, it’s a must-visit destination for anyone exploring Ushuaia and the southern tip of South America.
IMPORTANT: To access Tierra del Fuego National Park, you need to pay the national park entrance fee, which covers all trails, viewpoints, and attractions within the park.
As of the latest info (2025 season), fees are structured roughly as follows:
Foreign adults: about AR$12,000
