Perched on the edge of the dramatic and windswept Cape Horn, this iconic lighthouse stands as a solitary beacon at the terminus of South America's southernmost spot. Often shrouded in mist and battered by fierce winds, the lighthouse is a testament to human resilience against nature’s relentless forces. Built in 1991, its architecture is ruggedly charming, featuring a squat tower with red and white stripes, offering a stark contrast to the surrounding rugged cliffs and grey seas. The area is steeped in maritime lore, as Cape Horn was once a hazardous route aboard clipper ships navigating treacherous waters.
