The Pipo River and Its Surroundings in Tierra del Fuego National Park

In Tierra del Fuego National Park, near Ushuaia —known as the southernmost city in the world—, the Pipo River winds through forests that burst into vibrant colors during autumn. The characteristic trees of this sub-Antarctic region, such as the lenga (Nothofagus pumilio), guindo (Nothofagus betuloides), and ñire (Nothofagus antarctica), stand out for their autumn foliage, displaying shades of golden yellow, bright orange, and deep red. Fallen leaves cover the ground like a multicolored carpet, contrasting with the grayish tones of the mountains and the ever-changing Patagonian sky.

The Pipo River, with its cold and transparent waters, is a central feature of this landscape. After flowing through valleys and skirting ancient trees, its course narrows between rocks covered in green moss until, surprisingly, the river disappears into the mountain. In this area, the water rushes forcefully through narrow passages between rocky walls, creating a unique visual and auditory experience. The roar of the river echoing through the gorges blends with the crunch of dry leaves and the sound of wind rustling through the branches of the lenga, guindo, and ñire trees.

This natural environment near Ushuaia exemplifies the ephemeral beauty of autumn, where life cycles prepare for winter. The interaction between the river, which shapes the terrain with its constant flow, and the forests of lenga, guindo, and ñire creates a setting where geography and vegetation combine to form a singular and memorable landscape.


SPANISH VERSION

El Río Pipo y su entorno en el Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego

En el Parque Nacional Tierra del Fuego, cerca de Ushuaia —conocida como la ciudad más austral del mundo—, el Río Pipo fluye sinuoso entre bosques que, durante el otoño, se cubren de colores intensos. Los árboles característicos de esta zona subantártica, como la lenga (Nothofagus pumilio), el guindo (Nothofagus betuloides) y el ñire (Nothofagus antarctica), destacan por su follaje otoñal, que presenta tonos de amarillo dorado, naranja vibrante y rojo intenso. Las hojas caídas cubren el suelo formando una alfombra multicolor, en contraste con el tono grisáceo de las montañas y el cielo variable de la Patagonia.

El Río Pipo, de aguas frías y transparentes, forma parte fundamental de este paisaje. Tras atravesar valles y bordear árboles centenarios, su curso se reduce entre rocas cubiertas de musgo verde, hasta que, de manera sorprendente, el río se adentra en la montaña. En esta zona, el agua fluye con fuerza por estrechos pasajes entre paredes rocosas, creando un efecto visual y sonoro único. El rugido del río al pasar por estos desfiladeros se mezcla con el crujido de las hojas secas y el movimiento del viento entre las ramas de los árboles.

Este entorno natural cerca de Ushuaia ejemplifica la belleza efímera del otoño, donde los ciclos de la vida se preparan para el invierno. La interacción entre el río, que modela el terreno con su paso constante, y los bosques de lenga, guindo y ñire, ofrece un escenario donde la geografía y la vegetación se combinan para crear un paisaje singular y memorable.

... alla fine del mondo

faro" Les Eclaireurs"
il faro alla "fin del mundo"
Canale Beagle, confine Cile Argentina, Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego. 1000 km all' Antartide.
Fu messo in servizio il 23 Dicembre 1920 ed è tutt’oggi funzionante, seppur disabitato.
Come si vede, qui staziona una colonia di leoni marini, qualche elefante marino e centinaia di cormorani di Magellano.
Gli argentini lo hanno soprannominato Faro del Fin del Mundo, creando un po’ di confusione. Il vero faro alla fine del Mondo è il faro di San Juan de Salvamento, situato sulla costa orientale della remota Isla de los Estados, reso famoso da Jules Verne nel romanzo Il faro alla fine del Mondo.

Eng
"Les Eclaireurs" lighthouse
the lighthouse at the "end of the world"
Beagle Channel, border with Chile, Argentina, Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego.
It was put into service on December 23, 1920 and is still functioning today, although uninhabited.
As you can see, a colony of sea lions, some elephant seals and hundreds of Magellanic cormorants are stationed here.
The Argentinians have nicknamed it the Faro del Fin del Mundo, creating some confusion. The real lighthouse at the end of the world is the San Juan de Salvamento lighthouse, located on the eastern coast of the remote Isla de los Estados, made famous by Jules Verne in the novel The Lighthouse at the End of the World.

Lago Acigami by Gabriel Paladino Ibáñez

Lago Acigami

Lake Acigami is located in the Tierra del Fuego National Park and its basin is on the border between Chile and Argentina.

The lake is of glacial origin, with a northwest-southeast orientation, lying between the Guanaco and Pirámides mountain ranges. With an extension of 11 km. and an average width of 1.5 km. is fed by the Lapataia River whose course is naturally dammed by a glacial moraine.

The native peoples of the area called it Acigami, which in the Yaghan language means “basket or elongated bag” but after colonization the lake was renamed Lake Roca (Argentine sector) and Errázuriz (Chilean portion) in honor of the presidents of both nations who signed the Treaty of Limits on February 15, 1899.

In November 2008 and in commemoration of the Day of the Fuegian Aborigine, the original name was restored.
