Glaciar Perito Moreno
A visit to the Perito Moreno Glacier around 80 km. out of the area of El Calafate within the southern part of Patagonian Peninsula is definitely an getaway to a scenery of jagged white and blue ice and an journey back in time.
El Calafate, the entrance to the wonderful realm of glaciers and also to the Los Glaciares National Park, houses the Perito Moreno , It is a charming Patagonian community on the coast line of spectacular Lake Argentino. Located on a hillside encompassed by small farms and “estancias”, an abundance of venture activities are on supply here.
Along with glacial journeys and boat trips, the area includes horse riding, hiking, biking, fishing and kayaking, and also 4X4 safaris and special family adventure packages to indulging estancias, merging nature, active travel and history. Close by, the Waliche Caves, full of Paleolithic paintings personify one among Argentina’s important treasures.
Situated few hours from El Calafate, the glacier offers outstanding ice climbing and hiking prospects, boat trips for up-close scenery, and hiking with breath-taking sights from different balconies. The wonderful 250 kilometre-square glaciers formation, 30 km long, 5 km wide and 50m tall is on the list of 48 glaciers given by the Andean icecap.
Cruising along Lake Argentino amongst crystalline icebergs, the landscapes from the boat only will boost the immensity of the glacier, imposing above in its stunning glory. The intense cerulean ice sticks out against the backdrop of mountains, giving up-close views, trekking round the region, different balconies, and standpoint platforms on the cliff’s face opposing the glacier, awe-inspiring views of this wonder of nature.
The beauty, the silence shattered only by the ice cracking sound that is crashing into the water and making its imprints is extraordinary.
The Perito Moreno is just one of many ice fields globally which has survived the impact of global warming. Nurtured by snow melt, it keeps its equilibrium as it keeps growing at the same time it spawns large icebergs right into to the lake. A really different experience is hiking on the glacier itself.
Equipped with crampons, go through the force of the Perito Moreno up-close as aqua blue pools of water, crevasses and amazing colours spread among the systems of ice offer an completely new outlook during this unique glacier.
Los Glacieres National Park possesses glacier wonderland outlined by the Perito Moreno. It is an unbelievable summary of the many regions of interest in the huge, unwelcoming and windswept region of Patagonia – and really an once-in-a-lifetime experience.
