About this experience
We pick you up at your hotel and take you to the starting point of the trail. We begin our activity and after 2 hours of trekking we will arrive at the Esmeralda Lagoon. We will continue along the right bank to begin to ascend to the Ojo del Albino glacier. An hour later, we will be traveling through high mountain terrain where a lot of concentration is required. At 7 km, we will stop to enjoy a delicious lunch in the mountains and a short rest. We will continue to the Balcones del Ojo del Albino where we will have an incredible view of the Esmeralda lagoon and its entire high valley. After 10 km of travel and reaching a height of 1200m, we will climb a wall to reach the impressive Ojo del Albino Glacier. When the physical conditions of the passenger and the meteorological conditions of the place are optimal, we will ascend and walk on the ice. Around 3:00 p.m. we will start the return along the same path.

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino Glacier: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ushuaia.
How much does Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino Glacier cost?
+
Prices start at $165 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 Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino Glacier take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino Glacier worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino 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 Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino Glacier suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 10-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Small group Trekking to Ojo del Albino 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 Beagle Channel Navigation with Minitrekking, Vinciguerra Glacier Trekking and Premium Floe Lagoon, Lakes 4WD Off Road with Lunch at Lake Fagnano from Ushuaia. 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.
