Højdepunkter

This Trekking requires approximately 3 hours of trekking between ice and moraine, just like the traditional Minitrekking, but it is much more physically intense due to the pace of walking (almost twice the distance is covered in the same time) and the large amount of earrings. The walk on the ice with crampons lasts approximately one hour, it is done 1km west of the traditional Minitrekking area and you can see crevasses, lagoons, seracs and other incredible glacial formations. You also visit an immense waterfall a few meters from the glacier and the toast is made on the boat returning to the port.

Kører forbi
Once in the “Bajo las Sombras” port (Ruta 11, km 70.9) you board a ship to cross the Lago Rico to arrive at the opposite shore after a 20-minute trip approximately in front of the southern wall of the Perito Moreno Glacier. When you get ashore, and after passing by the shelter, the mountain guides organize small groups of up to 20 people. 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. In the about 1:30 hour walk on the glacier, you will be able to appreciate a wide variety of ice formations as well as cracks, seracs, glacier mills and small ponds.

Once you arrive at “Bajo de las Sombras” port (located on Route 11, 70 Km from El Calafate), you will board a ship to cross Lago Rico and arrive to the opposite coast after a 10-minute navigation in front of the stunning south face of Glaciar Perito Moreno. When we disembark on Bahia Puma, just 500 meters from the glacier, you will be received by our expert mountain guides. Then we will start the hike with a walk of about one hour on the lake coast and later on the moraine next to the ice (ground with rocks and unstable earth).

The duration of this tour is about 10 hours, including the one-hour guided transfer, to the walkways of Glaciar Perito Moreno, 7 km from our port.

If you don’t book our transfer with a visit to catwalks and go by your own means, this tour takes about five hours, leaving from the port and returning to the same point.

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.
