Discover the magic of Patagonia on this 1-day trek to Cerro Portillo, in Ushuaia.
Ushuaia is the capital city of the Argentine province of Tierra del Fuego. Located in the northeast of the city, Cerro Portillo offers great trekking options. This is where our program will take place.
We’ll meet in Ushuaia at 8 am to enjoy a full day of trekking. Take into account that the trekking ascent requires patience and determination. You can expect to find obstacles on your way. It is important to have a very good fitness condition so you can fully enjoy the adventure and its landscapes.
After going through the beautiful Patagonian forest we’ll finally reach the Cerro Portillo summit, from where we’ll be able to see the breathtaking landscapes of the famous ‘Andes Fueguinos’, the southernmost tip of the Andes mountain range.
La Mano and Olivia mounts, the Beagle Channel and the Ushuaia Bay will be other astonishing spots that we will admire from the top of Cerro Portillo. The duration of this trip is 8 hours. We’ll be returning at around 4 pm.
So if you want to be part of this trek in Ushuaia, all you have to do is send your request and book your trip now. It will be a pleasure to guide you there.
An easier but equally outstanding option could be this trek in Ojo del Albino, Ushuaia.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
