Trekking a Monte Susana

The trek to the Summit of Monte Susana is an ideal option for those seeking an accessible hike with great visual rewards. Just a few minutes from the city and close to Tierra del Fuego National Park, this emblematic hill offers a special connection to local history, linked to the old Presidio of Ushuaia. The experience begins by crossing the Fuegian forest, where the vegetation and natural surroundings invite a calm and progressive walk. Halfway through, a privileged viewpoint is reached with panoramic views of Ushuaia Bay and the surrounding mountains. The ascent continues above the tree line, where the landscape becomes more open and allows for a full appreciation of the Beagle Channel, the Darwin Range, and the National Park. After reaching the summit and enjoying lunch, the descent is made via the north face, offering new perspectives and greater sun exposure. A perfect excursion for active travelers who wish to explore Ushuaia from a different perspective. Duration: 5 hours Difficulty: Level 2 – moderate (gentle elevation and medium distance) Requirement: basic physical condition and a love for walking Also available for an afternoon departure.
