Minitrekking and walkways on the Perito Moreno Glacier from El Calafate

9 hours

Moderate

Walk on the Perito Moreno Glacier with crampons, explore its panoramic walkways and toast on ancient ice. A unique experience about one of the last living glaciers in the world.

❄️Perito Moreno Glacier Expedition

  • A journey on living ice that never repeats

    With tight crampons and the crunch of ice under your feet, you begin to walk on one of the most impressive natural wonders on the planet: the     Perito Moreno Glacier, the most emblematic glacial language of Southern Patagonian Ice Field, la3rd largest ice mass on Earthafter Antarctica and Greenland.

    At every step, a blue and white world sculpted by centuries of natural history opens up: deep cracks, crystalline lagoons, tunnels and textures carved by time. All accompanied by expert guides, controlled security and a unique feeling: that of being     stepping on a glacier that is alive and in motion.

    And when you think you've seen everything, the perfect closure comes: right there, on the ice, the guide breaks a layer with his pick, it works     Millennial whiskey on ice, and the ritual is completed with chocolates. A simple, icy and exciting toast that is never forgotten.

    Then, from the panoramic walkways, you look back at it from the outside. Monumental. Savage. Unforgettable.


“I thought it was just going to be shocking... but it was profoundly exciting. I've never felt anything like that.” — Valeria, Mexico
