About this activity

Our bus will take you to Los Glaciares National Park, we will board a boat that will take us through Lago Rico

From there, we will undertake a 30-minute walk with impressive views of the southern wall of the Glacier. Stay alert in case you witness any spectacular ice calving! During this hike, you will have the opportunity to admire the intense and varied shades of blue and white of the glacier.

The total route is approximately 1 hour and a half, through a natural terrain of sand and stones with some slopes and stairs. The path will take you along the coast of the lake and through a lush forest with views of the Glacier.

After the hike, we will take the boat again to enjoy a unique view of the south face of the glacier from the water.

To finish this experience, we will return to the walkways where you will have 2 hours to enjoy the impressive panoramic views offered by this unique place in the world.
