Getting There
-
Car
If you are traveling by car, start in the city of Ushuaia, which is the capital of Tierra del Fuego. From Ushuaia, head north on Route 3 (also known as the 'Ruta Nacional 3') for approximately 5 kilometers. Look for the signs indicating 'Martial Mountains' or 'Cerro Martial'. You will turn left onto a smaller road that leads to the base of the mountains. The road may be a bit rough, so a vehicle with good clearance is recommended. There is limited parking available at the trailhead, so plan to arrive early to secure a spot.
-
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, you can take a local bus from Ushuaia to the Martial Mountains area. Buses typically leave from the main bus terminal in Ushuaia and head towards the Martial area. The fare is relatively inexpensive, usually around 2000 Argentine Pesos (check for current prices). The bus ride lasts about 30 minutes. Once you arrive at the drop-off point, you will need to hike about 2 kilometers to reach the base of the Martial Mountains. Be aware that bus schedules may vary, especially in off-peak seasons, so it's advisable to check the timetable beforehand.
-
Taxi or Ride-sharing
If you prefer a more direct route, consider taking a taxi or using a ride-sharing service from Ushuaia to the Martial Mountains. This option is more expensive than public transportation, with fares typically ranging from 3000 to 5000 Argentine Pesos, depending on your negotiation skills and the time of day. The ride will take around 20 minutes. Make sure to agree on the fare before starting your journey to avoid any misunderstandings.
