    What's included

    Included

    • Box Lunch
    • Crampons (in case it is necessary to walk on the ice)
    • Hotel pick-up and drop-off

    What you'll see and do

    1. From Ushuaia, we take the Martial road, which ends at the Martial Glacier ski slope. At this point you get off the bus to start ascending the main track of the Martial Ski Center, and then continue skirting a small stream of water called Buena Esperanza, up to the Martial Glacier, where it starts. As you ascend, the vegetation becomes scarcer and you begin to travel through a typical mountain environment. The peaks covered with snow and ice frame the walk. As you ascend you will get an incredible view of the city of Ushuaia, the Beagle Channel and the Chilean islands Navarino and Hoste. After lunch (box lunch) a chocolate is tasted in a typical Andean mountain refuge and then you return to the base of the glacier where the vehicle will wait to take you back to the hotel,

    Excellent trekking, we walked a lot, on ice and snow. I loved.

    It is a beautiful hike, with beautiful landscapes, we walked through mud, water, ice and snow, it was a wonderful experience, since I did not know snow.

    Hiking Adventure

    Our guide Ezekiel was fantastic, keeping us entertained and informed as we hiked up to the glacier together. He came with our packed lunch and a snack and even hot water with coffee and tea. We managed to do the walk in just over an hour, which typically takes two or more. The views do not disappoint, it is truly magical and surreal to be in a cold and windy environment while in summer. Don’t dress too warm in summer as the hike itself will make you hot and sweaty. I did the walk in a gym top, long sleeve running top and a light weight windbreaker, beanie and gloves which were more than enough. All in all, a wonderful experience which I would gladly do again.

    Response from the operator: thank you

    mini trekking

    The first meters are very steep, you have to do them slowly. Afterwards, poles are very useful in the snow. Arrive in remis for 2600 pesos to the base. When we descended we had a snack in the tea house Everything highly recommended!!!

    Response from the operator: gracias

    Trekking towards the martial glacier

    It is a nice excursion...it starts where the entrance to the tea house and the beginning of the chairlifts are (at the time I made the trip, they were not operational) the beautiful path...medium difficulty...keep in mind There is a lot of climbing...there is an option to go along small rivers (beautiful) the first stop is at the edge of the glacier, it takes approximately 40 minutes...it is advisable to bring good footwear and water (trip in November )

    Response from the operator: gracias

    "Glaciar Martial" Trekking: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ushuaia.

    How much does "Glaciar Martial" Trekking cost?

    +

    Prices start at $193 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 "Glaciar Martial" Trekking 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 "Glaciar Martial" Trekking worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Ushuaia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule "Glaciar Martial" Trekking?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is "Glaciar Martial" Trekking 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 "Glaciar Martial" Trekking?

    +

    Around 3 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 "Glaciar Martial" Trekking 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.

    What is included in "Glaciar Martial" Trekking?

    +

    Included: Box Lunch; Crampons (in case it is necessary to walk on the ice); and Hotel pick-up and drop-off. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does "Glaciar Martial" Trekking include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 52 listed pickup locations in and around Ushuaia. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is "Glaciar Martial" Trekking offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for "Glaciar Martial" Trekking?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is "Glaciar Martial" Trekking wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to "Glaciar Martial" Trekking if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Ushuaia. Standard cancellation terms apply.
