Built on the route once used by Ushuaia's prison, the railway carries a difficult local history into the national park landscape.
It works best beside a coastal walk, linking the town's penal past with the forests prisoners once cut for timber.

Plan with Alex
Plan your time in Ushuaia
Follow Patagonia toward the ice, or take the northern road from vineyard shade to Iguazú's thunder.
Tell me which landscape you keep returning to, and we will build the right Argentina journey around it.
I would travel south for whales, lenga forests and glaciers calving into blue water. I would turn north for Mendoza's vineyards, the white deserts of the Puna and the roar of Iguazú. Both deserve a journey of their own.
