Southern Patagonia

introduction | rio gallegos | el calafate | el chalten | ushuaia | antarctica

The southern extreme of Patagonia offers tourist resources unique in the world. A thousand emotions invade the spirit when discovering the region situated just at the end of the world. A land of legends that many audacious spirits in the world have dreamt to travel. A land rather bleak, barren, inhabited only by those who have accepted to challenge of loneliness. A land where the visitor will be enraptured by such beauty. Due to its geographical position, it is exposed to strong winds, which explains the low constructions and the lack of vegetation in the cities, whose only trees grow bent following the wind direction and are thus called "flag-trees" for the shape they adopt. Los Glaciares National Park heads the long list of sites that, passing by the mythical Tierra del Fuego and the Islands of the Southern Atlantic Ocean, ends in the captivating "white continent": Antarctica. A visit along these vast lands will make it possible to get in touch with some of the wonders of nature in constant creation. But once one has been there, it is impossible not to be prompted to return again and again.

The main cities of this region are: Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world and El Calafate, the gateway to an impressive land of glaciers.
