The end of the world. Ushuaia.

Ushuaia, the end of the world, the end of the road and the end of our journey by bike.












An old tug slowly rotting into the Beagle Channel.













Ushuaia town and the Martial Glacier.













Ushuaia harbour. Today the departure point for cruises to Antartica but once the arrival point for prisoners to the feared penal colony of Ushuaia.

The prison in Ushuaia housed many of the worst criminals from across Argentina. It's location meant they didn't need to fence them in, afterall, where would they go?






The writing's on the wall.

'Ushuaia end of the world, beginning of everything'

We hope so.
