Harberton Ranch, Historical estancia in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina

Located 82 kilometers from Ushuaia, Estancia Harberton extends across a large property featuring traditional buildings, gardens, and views of the Beagle Channel.

Thomas Bridges established Estancia Harberton in 1886 as the first permanent settlement in Tierra del Fuego, after receiving land from the Argentine government.

The property maintains strong connections with the local Yamana indigenous community through Thomas Bridges' extensive language documentation work and preserved artifacts.

Visitors can explore the grounds through guided tours, visit the marine mammal museum containing over 3,000 specimens, and enjoy meals at the on-site restaurant.

The main house represents one of the earliest examples of prefabricated construction worldwide, shipped from England and assembled on-site in the 1800s.
