PERITO MORENO GLACIER
TRAILS + SAILING

The immensity of Perito Moreno Glacier can be enjoyed in both its dimensions and its colors, as well as in the echoing, thunderous sounds of constantly falling ice blocks. The visit to Perito Moreno is a chance to delight in a unique natural scenery. The southern side of Perito Moreno is a wonderful open view of nature: during this tour, visitors will have a chance to see the entire glacier and witness falling ice blocks.

> DESCRIPTION
The tour to Perito Moreno Glacier leaves from El Calafate. After a 45-minute trip, it is possible to buy the tickets and access the Park. Twenty minutes later, visitors will start seeing the white walls of the lake plunging into Lake Argentino.

The tour is an invitation to sail along the Rico Arm of Lake Argentino to then border and see the Perito Moreno Glacier from the southern end. This is a new perspective that will allow visitors to discover the glacier’s true dimensions and listen to and watch falling ice blocks. For almost an hour, the boat sails beside the 70-meter (229 ft.) high wall.

Los Glaciares Park and Natural Reserve was declared World (Natural) Heritage Site by UNESCO. It includes Lakes Viedma and Argentino and nearby areas, and also part of the ice field from which the glaciers Moreno, Onelli, Agassiz and Upsala originate, with a front of 5 km (3 mi.).

Perito Moreno glacier descends to Argentino Lake and its 35-kilometer (21 mi.) long and 70-meter (230 ft.) high wall above water level can be admired, with vibrant colors ranging from white to turquoise.

From the parking lot, visitors start walking down along wooden pathways located in front of the glacier walls. These pathways allow them to watch the glacier from three levels: the upper balcony enables a panoramic view of the entire ice field, the middle one offers visitors a good sight at glacier wall level, and the lower balcony is at lake level. It is common to hear ice blocks falling, making a furious roar, amplified by the wall.

By the side of the parking lot, a small food and drink store can be found, where visitors can buy meals to be later enjoyed on the footbridge area while watching the glacier. At about 3 p.m, visitors are taken back to El Calafate by bus.
