When crossing the Bridge, you access the first stop; La Macarena Station, as well as you can also see the changing Pipo River, a typical river formed by meltwater, which descends from the mountains and flows into the Beagle Channel.
La Macarena Station is a place of historical interest where the prisoners' train used to stop to provide water to the tanks of the steam locomotive called La Coqueta. At this stop it is possible to ascend to a viewpoint that offers an unparalleled view of the Pipo River Valley, Cerro Guanaco, Cerro la Portada and Mount Susana. Ascending towards the upper part, it will be possible to reach the source of the La Macarena waterfall in the Le Martial Mountain Range, which is formed by melting ice that originates at the top of said mountain. Also here you will find the prisoners who will offer you the photographic service. After a few minutes, the guards' whistle will call everyone to calmly return to the train and it will restart its march towards the Tierra del Fuego National Park.

Once on board the train again, the trip continues to the National Park Station, contemplating the magnificent landscape offered by mountains and valleys near its border.
