Ice Trekking Perito Moreno Glacier - Big Ice

(Argentina - El Calafate)

What will you do ?

What will you do:
Perito Moreno Glacier is one of the most beautiful and emblematic landscapes of Argentine Patagonia. Take the opportunity to see it in all and more intense ways in this experience of walking and exploring the Ice.

This unmissable experience begins in Porto "Bajo de las sombra", where we embark on a 15-minute navigation to cross the Brazo Rico.
We got very close to the Glacier and at that moment we have a fantastic perception of how big it is.
The mountain guides will take you even closer to the glacier to pick up the crampons and start the approach crossing.
Already on the glacier and with the crampons in place, the world takes a new perspective: blue lagoons, deep cracks, huge sinks, magical pits, and the unique feeling of being in the center of the glacier.
During the 3:30 hike, the guides explain the flora and fauna and general glaciologies of the region, explaining the specific phenomenon of ruptures of the Perito Moreno Glacier.
We sat on the glacier to rest and have a snack. Fantastic experience being there, sitting on the glacier surrounded by mountains. A unique feeling of being in the middle of the glacier !!
With the energies restored, we continue walking until we return to the starting point, where we remove the staples and do the trekking down the mountain to the port.
We returned to the vessel satisfied and with this new adventure to tell.
We then pass the catwalks to see the Perito Moreno Glacier from the front. We see the beautiful shade of blue of this immense glacier and we take the opportunity to photograph it with a more open angle of view, watching as it rises from the lake to the top of the mountains, to return to “civilization”, after an incredible experience.
