Great 5-hour trekking experience at Martial Glacier.
We had a great 5-hour trek at Martial Glacier. The guide was friendly, polite, and very knowledgeable, and shared interesting stories about native traditions and foods along the way. Some sections are steep, but with basic fitness and a walking stick, going up and down is no problem. Sliding on the snow was lots of fun, and the views of the Beagle Channel are beautiful. A hot drink and lunch were provided and were enough for the day. The only downside was the value for money, as the price felt a little high considering it’s a well-marked public trail only 15 minutes from the city.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your time and reccomendations. It is crucial to say that all the hikes in Ushuaia are public, however the weather is unpredictable and since we live in the cold all year round, it might change suddenly especially in the mountain. So we always reccomend to do the hikes with guides who will respond in emergencies that can appear in the wild.

Somewhat challenging hike, but the view from the end of the trail is worth the view
Pick up was very smooth. Upon arrival to the Fin del Mundo Park, our guide Sonia gave us hiking poles, crampons and our lunch. The hike up to “Mirador de Los Cóndores” was somewhat challenging because of the steep slope, but Sonia made sure that we did it at a comfortable pace. We were rewarded by a magnificent view from the top. Highly recommended.
Response from the operator: thank you david for your kind words!

5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ushuaia.
How much does 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier cost?
+
Prices start at $95 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ushuaia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ushuaia is not rushed.
Is 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ushuaia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ushuaia can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ushuaia and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5hrs of Trekking Experience in Martial Glacier start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ushuaia within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ushuaia?
+
On Outty we rank every Ushuaia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Vinciguerra Glacier Trekking and Premium Floe Lagoon, King Crab Route 4WD Off Road with lunch in Puerto Almanza, Tierra del Fuego National Park – Small Groups. Optional Train. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ushuaia?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ushuaia?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
