Then, a short 20-minute walk begins with a talk about glaciology along the shore of the lake towards the glacier. Once on the ice, the guides put on each participant a pair of crampons and give them instructions on how they should walk on the ice.

5Aussies on a glaciar
This is an amazing experience. The guides are fantastic and very knowledgeable. Their English was excellent. I imagined we would climb for 15’ on the glaciar, but it was a lot longer with quite an adventure feel despite the tour dynamic. At the end we had a glass of whisky with ice from the glaciar. It was a lot of fun and a must for anyone wanting to do the perito moreno glaciar

5A must see.
A very well organised tour. Everything ran on time. The glacier was amazing and all staff gave interesting facts about it. Appreciated the offer coffee/ tea during the lunch break. The views from the walkway were equal to, if not better than views doing the mini trek. However, walking on the glacier was a great experience.

5An absolute highlight of Patagonia.
So worth it! Trekking on the glacier was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Patagonia. Definitely worth including the ice climbing as it was amazing to be right up and on the glacier with all its beauty. Highly recommend.

5If you have any doubts -...
If you have any doubts - price, crampons, or whatever - put them aside. This is a special and beautiful experience at one of the natural wonders of the world. It’s professionally run and you’re in good hands - Sebastián who led the tour was energising and knowledgeable with a great sense of humour, and Eduardo looked after everyone and inspired confidence. But everyone at Hielo y Aventura was exceptional. Although it’s a well marked tourist destination they managed to give everyone a great personal experience.

About El Calafate

El Calafate is a small Patagonian town on the shore of Lago Argentino, the base for the Perito Moreno Glacier and Los Glaciares National Park.

El Calafate lies on the south shore of Lago Argentino, a milky turquoise lake fed by glacial meltwater, with the Andes on the western horizon. The town is named after the calafate, a thorny shrub with dark berries, and a local saying promises that anyone who eats them will return to Patagonia. It was founded in the 1920s to serve the surrounding sheep estancias and now exists chiefly as the gateway to Los Glaciares National Park.
