Discover Ushuaia, Argentina: Capturing the Train at the End of the World Adventure

Captured during the Thanksgiving holiday in November 2023, this journey was a breathtaking adventure. After setting sail from Ushuaia, ascending the mountain, and trekking to the stunning Esmeralda Lake (Laguna Esmeralda), the final destination in Tierra del Fuego National Park was a ride on the sightseeing train, which took us through the heart of the park, revealing the awe-inspiring landscapes at the end of the world.

Nestled at the foot of snow-capped mountains, the landscape is dotted with countless giant fallen trees, winding rivers that meander through wetlands, and expanses of gray-brown soil. In what seems like a desolate, otherworldly place, life persists with remarkable resilience.

The railway for this tourist train was constructed over a century ago, originally used for logging and mining within the park. After years of abandonment, it was transformed into a scenic route. This transformation symbolizes a shift from conquering nature to revering and giving back to it, adding a vibrant touch to the extreme beauty at the end of the world [selfie R].
