Navarino Island, Remote island in Tierra del Fuego archipelago, Chile.

The extensive territory of Navarino Island spans 2,514 square kilometers between Tierra del Fuego and Cape Horn, featuring mountains, peat bogs, and lagoons.

The HMS Beagle expedition led by Phillip Parker King and Robert FitzRoy arrived at the island in 1829, naming it after the Battle of Navarino.

The Martin Gusinde Anthropological Museum in Puerto Williams presents exhibits about the Yahgan people who inhabited the island for 10,000 years.

Puerto Williams, the main settlement, connects to mainland Chile through regular flights from Punta Arenas and boat services across the Beagle Channel.

The Dientes de Navarino mountain circuit stands as the southernmost trek on Earth, crossing through unmarked paths and mountain passes.
