Tierra del Fuego National Park Tour, Train Optional

About This Experience

Pickup is from your accommodation in Ushuaia; the operator sends the exact time the day before, so leave a WhatsApp number or email when booking. The van heads west on Ruta Nacional 3, and the first stop is the End of the World Train station.

Travellers on the train option board the End of the World Train here and ride into the park, while the rest of the group continues by van. Inside the park the tour visits Ensenada Zaratiegui (closed in winter), where the End of the World Post Office can be seen and photographed from outside, and Lake Acigami, also called Lake Roca, with a walk along its shore and, in clear weather, a view toward the Chilean border.

The last stop is Lapataia Bay, where Ruta Nacional 3, the southern end of the Pan-American Highway, comes to an end. Short walks along the way cover the park's plants, wildlife and geography before the van returns you to your accommodation.

The standard option does not include the train. The End of the World Train ticket is part of the price only with the 'With train included' option. The national park entry fee (ARS 40,000 for foreign visitors since 1 June 2026) is extra on both options.

Good to Know & Caveats

• Every visitor needs a Tierra del Fuego National Park ticket: ARS 40,000 for foreign visitors since 1 June 2026 (Argentine residents pay less, and children aged 0 to 6 enter free). It can be bought online in advance from the national parks service.
• The End of the World Train sells out in December to February, when most cruise ships call, so train seats for those months are best booked early.
• Ensenada Zaratiegui is closed in the winter season, according to the operator.
• The End of the World Post Office at Ensenada Zaratiegui is often closed, so don't count on going inside.
• Weather changes fast in Ushuaia and snow is common from June to September; warm, waterproof layers are needed in every month.
