Mount Pietro
Timaukel, Tierra del Fuego
A trail in the heart of Karukinka Park, about 15 minutes from the Vicuña refuge, which begins with the entrance to a forest of lengas and ñirres, allows you to appreciate the rugged Patagonian scenery, colors and vegetation, dams built by beavers and different landscapes that, at the top, make up a vast and diverse map of Tierra del Fuego. You will be accompanied by the sound of birds, such as the rayaditos and the comesebos, and the creaking of trees in the wind.
