Highlights
A unique experience in deep Patagonia, where travel matters as much as destination. From El Calafate, the crossing begins by sailing the Argentine Lake. The boat moves away from the port and the landscape opens up in water, wind and silence. At a remote point, the navigation ends and the adventure changes pace. The land takes over. A 4x4 vehicle drives along mountain roads and crosses rivers, following the natural pulse of the environment. As you gain height, the tour continues on UTV, allowing you to access higher areas, where the Patagonian forest appears and the landscape becomes more closed and deeper.

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.
