Description:

Explore the famous glacier of Perito Moreno, a steadily growing mountain of ice located in Los Glaciares National Park. Study this fascinating and massive natural wonder as you learn about its unique regenerative cycle, which allows it to increase in size over time.

Depart from El Calafate and head to Los Glaciares National Park, one of Patagonia's main attractions. Pass through this rugged, mountainous landscape as you approach the giant mass of Perito Moreno, which sprawls over 97 square miles (250 sq km). Learn about the intriguing natural processes taking place in and around the vast glacier, which forms natural dams, waterways, and collapsing ice structures as it ebbs, flows, and expands.

Next, take a walk on the Mirador footbridge for an up-close perspective on this icy colossus. You can choose to add on a boat cruise next to the towering ice walls and glacial caves along Argentino Lake, or just spend some free time exploring on your own before your 2-hour return trip to El Calafate.
