Full description
After your hotel pickup, get an introduction to the landscape and use of crampons for your glacier trekking adventure before seeing the incredible streams, small lagoons, gullies, crevasses and ice formations of the incredible glacier.
The trekking is moderate. The ice surface over which you will walk is irregular, but firm and safe. You will receive information about the flora, fauna and general glaciology of the region and also about specific phenomena that occur on the Perito Moreno Glacier, including what can cause its rupture.
After the walk, a stroll through the exuberant magallanic forest brings you back to the shelter, where visitors can have lunch overlooking an incredible view.
Once lunch is finished, you’ll head back to the port, where a bus will be awaiting to take you back to the Glacier viewpoint and its footbridges before heading back to El Calafate.
