Punta Arenas: Trek to San Isidro Lighthouse, End of the Continent｜Chile

Trek to the last continental lighthouse in the Americas. This full-day excursion takes you 70 km south of Punta Arenas to the Punta Árbol area, the starting point of a coastal trek that culminates at the San Isidro Lighthouse — the last lighthouse on the American continent and one of the most remote corners of Chilean Patagonia.

The route, of medium-low difficulty, follows the coastline of the Strait of Magellan and goes into the native forests of the Brunswick Peninsula. Throughout the hike, you can observe the flora and fauna characteristic of this southern region, in an environment where the sea, the forest, and the mountains meet.

After about a 2-hour hike, you'll arrive at the lighthouse, where you'll have time to rest, take photos, and take in the scenery before heading back to the drop-off point.

Includes roundtrip transportation from Punta Arenas, trekking poles, and additional equipment (gaiters, raincoats, and snow spikes) when conditions require it. Ideal for travelers looking for an authentic Patagonian trekking experience with a truly unique destination.
