The final stretch of National Route 3 takes us to Lapataia Bay, in Tierra del Fuego National Park. Once there, you will see a series of wooden footbridges that lead to different trails. Turning to the right,  after a few meters you will find the sign indicating the beginning of the Baliza trail. This low-difficulty hike will take you through a dense forest and beaver dams, until you reach the coast of the Beagle Channel. At the end of the trail, you can see an informative sign and the beacon that marks the boundary with the Strict Nature Reserve. This coastal area is a good location for landscape photography and birdwatching.
