Excursion from El Calafate

A day before Patagonia’s living ice.

Travel from El Calafate to the Perito Moreno Glacier walkways, with time to explore the viewing platforms and a return arranged around the agreed schedule.

The experience

Route 11 opens onto the landscape before reaching the glacier.

The journey follows sections of Lake Argentino and crosses the Patagonian steppe toward Los Glaciares National Park. Regional birds such as flamingos, black-necked swans or steamer ducks may appear along the way; sightings depend on the season and the day’s conditions.

Photo stops and viewpoints are considered highlights of the journey when access, weather and operating time allow.
