Start your adventure at the Bajo de las Sombras pier, about 4 miles (6 km) before the Perito Moreno viewpoint. A 20-minute cruise across Lake Rico's glacial waters will take you to the south face of the imposing glacier.

As you hop off the boat at the glacier's foot, your guides will equip you with crampons and show you how to hike on ice. In addition to safety instructions, they will provide you lots of interesting facts about the local flora and wildlife as well as general notions of glaciology about Patagonia with special attention to the unique Perito Moreno, one of the world's rare glaciers that keeps expanding.

The hike on the glacier takes about 1 hour and 40 minutes to complete across the uneven ice surface that is firm and safe to walk on. Your expert guides will explore with you the many facets during this breathtaking adventure.

Depending on the time of the day, your box lunch will be handed before or after your hike.

You will also have one hour to view the glacier from a distant viewpoint either before or after your hike.

Laguna de los Tres is an emblematic and unforgettable place in a visit around El Chaltén. It offers spectacular views of the Fitz Roy and several glaciers in the area.

The trail begins where the urban area of El Chaltén ends. There you will make your way uphill to a natural viewpoint of the valley of the River De las Vueltas.

The trail then continues along the stream Del Salto following the valley towards Mount Fitz Roy with many vantage viewpoints over stunning landscapes before reaching Poincenot Base Camp (the most popular camp site in the National Park).

While the trek is suitable for most people, the last bit ascending to Laguna de Los Tres will require an extra effort. You will then return going through a moraine with breathtaking views of hanging glaciers over the Laguna Sucia.

One of the classic day hikes in El Chalten, which allows getting close to the Torre Glacier and the mountain peaks of the Cordon Adela.

From El Chalten, there are two main paths that head toward Torre Lake. The trek begins in the valley of the Las Vueltas River leading upstream towards the river’s origin. Halfway through the hike, you will stop at a natural viewpoint overlooking the Cordon Adela, the Torre Glacier and the granite walls of the valley.

The trek ends on the shores of the Torre Lake, where the sight of small icebergs moving slowly is not unusual.
