Hike On the Beaches of Patagonia
Go to where the road ends in South America to hike to the continent’s last lighthouse, and discover the unique beauty of Patagonian fjords and channels ecosystem.
See stunning views of Mount Tarn, the Strait of Magellan and Bahia el Aguila on this easy-medium difficulty day hike.
Drive to the Fin de Camino, the end of the road on the South American Continent, to begin your adventure. From there hike along the beaches of the legendary Strait of Magellan to reach Faro San Isidro, the southernmost lighthouse on the continent. See views of the strait and, with luck, see the dolphins, whales and sea lions that live there.
Walk under the branches of the Temperate Sub-Antarctic rainforest and get to know the flora of this beautiful microclimate.
Stop for lunch at the base of the lighthouse hill before turning back to head to the Fin de Camino to celebrate your hiking achievement before returning to Punta Arenas.
