Tours to Patagonia: The Perito Moreno Glacier
At 01 Argentina Travel Agency, we offer a number of tours and excursions to the famous ‘Perito Moreno’ glacier and its surrounding area. Don’t miss an opportunity to see this attraction, a beautiful glacier and the other impressive glaciers near it. Join us for tours that will allow you to explore Perito Moreno and the rest of the glacier national park that it is located in and which is truly a treasure of Patagonia! The experience of walking on the glacier Perito is unique. You’ll hike through the woods and ice for a trip that lasts about two hours, walking between huge ice needles, towers, small cracks and turquoise lagoons. The degree of difficulty of this hike is low and is recommended for travelers between the ages of 10 and 60. Athletic shoes are recommended, if possible hiking shoes, as well as thick socks, long pants, a windbreaker, sunglasses, sunscreen, gloves and a hat.
Other glaciers and attractions in the national park can be explored by taking an 01 Argentina tour, led by expert tour guides. One of these glaciers is Upsala, which is impressive for its size, with an area of about 595 km2. This glacier can be reached by the northern part of Lake Argentino and its surroundings offer beech forests and fertile valleys. On your way you can observe numerous icebergs that have broken off from the glacier and are drifting away from it. The Spegazzini glacier covers an area of 66 km2, and a width of 1.5 km is noted mainly for its high and imposing walls. We also bring travelers on a beautiful excursion to Estancia Cristina, which combines travel by water and land. We depart from Putna Bander and navigate north on Lake Argentino and through the Upsala channel to reach the western wall of the Upsala glacier and land at Estancia Crisina – which has the best land access to the Upsala glacier. This destination is full of possibilities for adventure and is a great place for activities like hiking and horseback riding. You can also enjoy a delicious meal at Estancia Cristina and visit the small historical and natural museum housed here. Our tours in and around the glacier national park are full of adventure, hiking, and beautiful views! Contact us for more information today!
