El Calafate 3d / 2n

El Calafate is located at the enormous lake Lago Argentino and looks out over the snowy mountain peaks of the Andes. For nature lovers, mountaineers and hikers El Calafate is a paradise! The town itself is trendy with many restaurants most of them including lounge and outdoor seating possibilities. The restaurants will not open until the evening falls because during the day everyone is out and about enjoying nature.

The most impressive glacier in Argentina is without a doubt Perito Moreno with its width of 5 kilometres and 70 metres in height. This is really an experience you shouldn’t miss. One can hear the breaking of the ice, see pieces of ice fall, and see the falling pieces cause incredible waves. Beautiful hiking paths offer an extraordinary view of the glacier. With a boat one can see the glacier up-close and ... there is even a possibility to walk with a guide on this glacier!
