Perito Moreno National Park

A trip to this imposing glacier gives you a chance to walk on the ice wearing cleats and to see and hear a truly astounding spectacle: blocks of ice rupturing and floating away as icebergs.

Reviewed By LondonWiggies - London, United Kingdom

A true world class must see Do your research and spend as much of a full day as you can As well as the boardwalks and the many vistas, we did the boat trip and mini hike on the glacier. The crampons took a little getting used to and the on glacier ice hike was not for the faint hearted or physically impaired. It was done by the National Park staff very well. It wasn’t cheap, but we felt we experienced everything this remarkable national park has to offer Unmissable

Purmamarca is a really beautiful town , the church, the old tree in its yard, the hill , of course, the llamas, the food ( we bought empanadas and we ate them while walking by the streets) . It’ s a gift for your eyes & soul.

Perito Moreno Glacier

Reviewed By mattontwowheels - Stirling, United Kingdom

The glacier is breathtaking and is well worth the excursion from El Calafate, particularly on an organised tour with an experienced guide who can offer insights into the nature and geography of the park.

Glaciar del Hielo Azul

Reviewed By rebeccaE86

I hiked to the Refugio from Dona Rosa, it took me 7h15. To gauge my fitness I run 5km in 32 minutes. If you are less fit than me it will take you much longer - be aware of the sunset.There were people arriving in the dark. That is dangerous! In March 2019 the Refugio cost 500peso. I bought a pizza for 500 and a beer for 130. (Inflation is 30% here next year the prices will be much more). The following morning I hiked to the glacier. The return trip to the Refugio was 3h15. It then took 5h30 to return to Dona Rosa. I had booked a taxi for 6pm. It was quite a challenge to make it on time! You can get a map and register your hike with the mountain service in El Bolson beside the pond in the centre of town. You must hike with 1.5L of water, a torch, a sleeping bag, sturdy shoes and lots of snacks. A two or 3 Refugio hike would be easier than the hike I did - after the glacier you can hike to Natacion Refugio which takes much less time than climbing down the mountain.

Anfiteatro Natural

Reviewed By MaureenAlaska - Darwin, Australia

I loved this area with so many amazing rock formations. It was a short walk into the amphitheater from our bus and we were fortunate to have a market seller play music for us with our guide. Such a lovely sound echoing through the rock formation. We were sad to see some silly young people climb up on the rock wall, surely that is forbidden.

Upsala Glacier

At 37 miles long, this glacier is considered one of the longest in South America.

Worth the rough boat ride, the glacial winds that literally knock you down, and the 4x4 trek to see this beauty up close!
