  • The tour starts when passengers are picked up in El Calafate. You will board our comfortable buses, where our tour guides will give you information on the place, the glacier and the tour on our way to Parque Nacional Los Glaciares. Once you arrive at “Bajo de las Sombras” port (located on Route 11, 70 Km from El Calafate), you’ll board a ship to cross Lago Rico and descend on the opposite coast, after a 20-minute navigation in front of the stunning south face of Glaciar Perito Moreno.
  • When you disembark, you will be welcomed by our expert mountain guides, who will lead you to a cozy shelter with a privileged view of the glacier. Here starts the trekking! We will start by walking along the coast of the lake, keeping our eyes on the glacier so that we do not miss any ice calvings. Then, the guides will give a talk about glaciology. When we reach the glacier side, with its amazing shades of blue ice framing the landscape, you will be divided into subgroups of up to 20 people each and you will have the crampons and helmets fitted, which are provided by the company. This tour is highly personalized (one guide every up to 10 passengers). Once on the glacier, you will hear the safety instructions and you will walk to enjoy this frozen paradise, which has been declared a Word Heritage Site in 1981.
  • The level of difficulty of this walk is moderate. The surface of the ice is irregular, but firm and safe. During the trekking, you will be able to see a variety of typical glacier features, such as deep cracks, blue moulins, huge seracs and turquoise ponds.
  • At the end of the ice trekking, you will walk on the area around the glacier and the side moraine, from where you will be able to enjoy a panoramic view of Glaciar Perito Moreno, the mountains and the lake. Later, you will return along a path crossing the exuberant Bosque Andino PatagĂłnico, completing the THREE-HOUR WALK ON THE LAKE COAST, MORAINE, ICE AND WOODS (about one hour is on the glacier’s ice). When we arrive to the shelter, we will give visitors hot drinks and a souvenir. Shortly after, you will embark to return to “Bajo de las Sombras” port, but before departing you will be able to watch the huge walls of the glacier from the ship.
  • The duration of this tour is about 10 hours, including the transfer and a one-hour guided visit to the walkways of Glaciar Perito Moreno, 7 km from the port. There, you’ll enjoy the spectacular panoramic view of the glacier and walk along some of the self-guided paths. If you don’t use our transfer and go by your own means, the Minitrekking takes about four hours and a half, leaving from the port and returning to the same point.
  • Group departures: we have several departures at different times. If you are traveling in a group or with a partner, please tell us the details in advance, in order to place them at the same time and guarantee the group departure at the same time
  • If there is a participant under the age of 15, please provide a photo of their passport with the date of birth so we can confirm the reservation. This will be requested at the time of confirmation.

Unbelievable experience

Published on Apr, 2025

Breathtaking experience. Amazing just to been able to visit such a place. Privilege of a lifetime. The place is very well preserved, infrastructure is very friendly for users, the staff knows very well their job and are really hospitable and friendly.

A must see.

Published on Feb, 2025

A very well organised tour. Everything ran on time. The glacier was amazing and all staff gave interesting facts about it. Appreciated the offer coffee/ tea during the lunch break. The views from the walkway were equal to, if not better than views doing the mini trek. However, walking on the glacier was a great experience.

An absolute highlight of Patagonia.

Published on Jan, 2025

So worth it! Trekking on the glacier was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Patagonia. Definitely worth including the ice climbing as it was amazing to be right up and on the glacier with all its beauty. Highly recommend.

If you have any doubts -...

Published on Jan, 2025

If you have any doubts - price, crampons, or whatever - put them aside. This is a special and beautiful experience at one of the natural wonders of the world. It’s professionally run and you’re in good hands - Sebastián who led the tour was energising and knowledgeable with a great sense of humour, and Eduardo looked after everyone and inspired confidence. But everyone at Hielo y Aventura was exceptional. Although it’s a well marked tourist destination they managed to give everyone a great personal experience.

Great trip to the Glacier

Published on Dec, 2024

Breathtaking views, informative and friendly bi-lingual guides. The trekking was not too difficult and there was an abundance of stops to take great pictures.
