Description

On a half-day outing, which combines trekking with rowing, you will enjoy all the excitement of a meandering river surrounded by peat bogs, where at every turn the landscape surprises you with its impressive snow-capped peaks and glaciers, the magical atmosphere of the Andes Mountains. This activity is ideal for those visitors who want to surround themselves with all the nature that Tierra del Fuego offers, but for an outing that does not require much effort, a minimum of physical condition and a desire to enjoy is necessary! We carry out a low-intensity trek until we reach our initial rowing point, the Butterfly Lagoon, where you will learn the most important aspects and the technique for rowing on the river. We will let ourselves be carried away by the river enjoying the calm of the water, surrounded by the Andes mountain range with its snow-capped peaks!

Certainly a tour you don't want to miss while in Ushuaia

A fun tour in a beautiful location. We unfortunately had really strong winds, so it made the low intensity activity into a very difficult one. Still enjoyable, but a physical adventure.

Operator response

Thanks for the message! We are glad that you were able to face our weather and still enjoy it!

Beautiful experience, the rafting is quiet, I went in May and there is the river a little frozen which got more fun 😁. All the team super attentive from moment 1 of my excursion, Sebas recommended the excursion that best suited what I was looking for and Nacho a super trained guide. You will not regret it!!

Rafting x the Olivia River with family

Highly recommended!!! Both coordination, place and care of the guide make this experience a barbaric day. Something different in pretty Ushuaia.

Funny.

For me, things are generally easy or fun. So rowing against the wind in the lagoon the butterfly and over the river Olivia was not easy, but fun. Walking with the boat in tow was not fun, but Leo made the hike much easier by providing color data, his experience and especially always involved in the landscape. I know that no one asked my advice, but if you are in Ushuaia and tired of your legs hurting so much walking, try paddling with Táun so you also end up with arm pain! And so much fun, because I always get everything I see, I see it and I want it, I want it and I have it...

Packrafting in rio olivia, lots of rowing and good vibe!

The packrafting in rio olivia was amazing, there was Trekking to the butterfly lagoon, going down a path with a beautiful landscape with many trees and the view of the mountain range. When we reached the lagoon, it snowed and that made the experience even more beautiful. I read our coordinator a genius, always very attentive. The experience was a 10/10. Super recommended!!

Ushuaia

I did the Packrafting tour, as well as experience Ojo Del Albino with Taun Ushuaia and the experiences were simply amazing! From the first contact, the team demonstrated total attention, care and professionalism. The guides are extremely prepared, experienced and very cordial, passing us safety throughout the journey, as well as sharing valuable information about nature and the region. The supplied equipment was in excellent condition, and it was very nice to see the care with every detail to ensure our comfort and safety. The transport (transfer) was also organized with all the sympathy, in addition to a very tasty snack provided by them too. I highly recommend the experiences with Taun! Unforgettable adventures, guided by great professionals. Thanks for such special experiences!
