Parque Yatana

Ushuaia


Part art project, part urban refuge, this city block of lenga forest is being preserved from encroaching development. The forest, whose name in Yaghan means 'weave,' is a spot for indigenous people to practice their crafts, which are shown at the art center in the park and throughout the hiking trails.
