Excellent trekking, we walked a lot, on ice and snow. I loved.
It is a beautiful hike, with beautiful landscapes, we walked through mud, water, ice and snow, it was a wonderful experience, since I did not know snow.

Itinerary
From Ushuaia, we take the Martial road, which ends at the Martial Glacier ski slope. At this point you get off the bus to start ascending the main track of the Martial Ski Center, and then continue skirting a small stream of water called Buena Esperanza, up to the Martial Glacier, where it starts. As you ascend, the vegetation becomes scarcer and you begin to travel through a typical mountain environment. The peaks covered with snow and ice frame the walk. As you ascend you will get an incredible view of the city of Ushuaia, the Beagle Channel and the Chilean islands Navarino and Hoste. After lunch (box lunch) a chocolate is tasted in a typical Andean mountain refuge and then you return to the base of the glacier where the vehicle will wait to take you back to the hotel,

Hiking Adventure
Our guide Ezekiel was fantastic, keeping us entertained and informed as we hiked up to the glacier together. He came with our packed lunch and a snack and even hot water with coffee and tea. We managed to do the walk in just over an hour, which typically takes two or more. The views do not disappoint, it is truly magical and surreal to be in a cold and windy environment while in summer. Don’t dress too warm in summer as the hike itself will make you hot and sweaty. I did the walk in a gym top, long sleeve running top and a light weight windbreaker, beanie and gloves which were more than enough. All in all, a wonderful experience which I would gladly do again.

mini trekking
The first meters are very steep, you have to do them slowly. Afterwards, poles are very useful in the snow. Arrive in remis for 2600 pesos to the base. When we descended we had a snack in the tea house Everything highly recommended!!!

Trekking towards the martial glacier
It is a nice excursion...it starts where the entrance to the tea house and the beginning of the chairlifts are (at the time I made the trip, they were not operational) the beautiful path...medium difficulty...keep in mind There is a lot of climbing...there is an option to go along small rivers (beautiful) the first stop is at the edge of the glacier, it takes approximately 40 minutes...it is advisable to bring good footwear and water (trip in November )

Nice intense walk, nothing more
The place is nice to see the city and the canal from very high. The road is good to do it by car. The walking climb is pronounced seriously, we did it on the main track. The trails are 2, a difficult and long one that goes to near the base and a shorter and easier one that does not approach the Glacier. The views are fine, it was the only place we saw snow! The hardest part was the descent down the track. At the base there is a Tea House and a Mountain Refuge to eat or drink.
