A birding specialist in a town most people visit for the scenery. Every tour is private, leaves Ushuaia at eight and lasts the full day, with a guide who knows where each species lives.

  • Tierra del Fuego National Park: southern beech forest for the Magellanic woodpecker, then peat bogs, beaver wetlands and the Beagle Channel shore. Over forty species are possible, including the black-faced ibis and the austral pygmy owl.
  • Garibaldi Pass: a highland hike of four to five hours in the Fuegian Andes, after the white-bellied seedsnipe and the ground tyrants and finches of the high ground. Needs good fitness.
  • Almanza: east along Route 3 and Route J to the fishing village on the Beagle Channel, looking for condors and woodpeckers on the way and albatrosses and giant petrels along the shore, with a table booked at one of Almanza's seafood restaurants.
  • Ushuaia to Río Grande: their main programme, three days crossing the island, with the seedsnipe at Garibaldi Pass, the rare Magellanic plover on the grasslands and coast of the north, and the woodpecker in the national park.

The WhatsApp is on their site and matches the tourism secretariat's trekking register. The address is residential, out west by the Pipo.
