The OffChain Ushuaia retreat flows across five days, each crafted to blend adventure, presence, and the wild spirit of Patagonia. Here’s how the journey unfolds:

Day 0 – Arrival at the End of the World
Arrive in Ushuaia, the southernmost city in the world. For those landing early, there’s time to settle in and explore the town’s streets, cafés, and waterfront. In the afternoon, we gather and travel to our lodging near the center, making it easy to move together during the days ahead. Dinner is flexible this night, depending on arrival times.

Day 1 – Huskies & Beagle Channel
After breakfast, we visit Husky Park for a guided walk and time with the dogs. Lunch follows in Tierra Mayor, before an afternoon boat journey across the Beagle Channel. The day closes with a seafood dinner featuring local specialties like king crab and black hake.

Day 2 – Tierra del Fuego National Park
A full day of guided trekking and canoeing through the national park, surrounded by pristine landscapes. We’ll share lunch in a dome tucked inside the park, and end the evening with a traditional argentine parrilla feast.

Day 3 – Isla Gable & Penguin Colony
We set out early for a day of canoeing, hiking, and exploration on Isla Gable. After lunch in a rustic setting, the journey continues by boat toward Isla Martillo, where penguins and seabirds thrive in their natural habitat. We return to Ushuaia in the evening.

Day 4 – Wellness & Farewell
Our final morning is one of rest and renewal, with a spa session and time to recharge. A farewell lunch at Hotel Arakur with sweeping views of the Beagle Channel before we close the journey together and head to the airport.

You’ll be staying in cozy, well-appointed lodges near the heart of Ushuaia, designed to keep us connected as a group while giving you personal space to rest. Each space is selected for its comfort, warmth, and proximity to both the town and the wild landscapes just beyond. Rooms are private unless a shared option is specifically requested. Expect inviting interiors that balance rustic Patagonian charm with modern amenities, the perfect base for adventure and restoration.

Yes, intentionally. There will be moments throughout the retreat when we fully unplug from phones and laptops to create space for deeper presence.

• Flights or travel to Ushuaia

• Travel insurance (required)

• Alcohol beyond what’s included in group meals

• Personal purchases or optional activities outside the group itinerary

Nope. Many attendees come solo. This is a space where connections form quickly and authentically, especially over shared meals and unplugged moments.

We’ll send a detailed list after registration, but for Ushuaia in November you can expect shifting mountain and coastal weather, crisp mornings, chilly evenings, and occasional rain. Bring:

• Comfortable outdoor clothing

• Warm layers (fleece, sweaters, thermal tops)

• Waterproof jacket and pants

• Hiking shoes or boots (water-resistant)

• Hat, gloves, and scarf for colder days

• Bathing suit (for the spa day)

• Something cozy for evenings indoors

• Any personal items that inspire your creativity

We’re keeping the group intentionally small, with a maximum of 15 participants. This allows space for genuine connection, deeper conversations, and a shared journey where you’re not just meeting people, you’re truly getting to know them. The intimacy of a small group is part of the magic of the experience.

We’re curating this experience with care and intention. To apply, simply fill out the form. We're not selecting based on resumes, we're looking for people who resonate with the values of OffChain: curiosity, presence, generosity, and openness. Once you apply, our team will review your submission and follow up within a few days. If accepted, you’ll receive an invitation to confirm your spot with payment and an onboarding guide with everything you need to know to prepare for the journey.
