Is there coverage in Tierra del Fuego National Park?

Around the park entrance and the End of the World train you may catch signal, but the trails, Lapataia Bay and forest interior are largely offline. Download your maps in Ushuaia before you go.

Will it work if I cross to the Chilean side of the island?

No. This is Argentina's national plan and only covers Argentine territory. Crossing into Chilean Tierra del Fuego would need a separate Chile eSIM, so plan any cross-border legs accordingly.

Good to know in Tierra del Fuego

Ushuaia town has solid coverage, but the national park, Beagle Channel cruises and the road to Río Grande drop out quickly; grab offline maps and expect no data on the water.

Best time to visit Tierra del Fuego

November to March offers long days for hiking and Beagle Channel cruises, while winter brings snow and skiing at Cerro Castor near Ushuaia.
