El Calafate Perito Moreno Glacier Minitrekking Adventure Tour
Dare to do a minitrekking in the Perito Moreno Glacier! I lived the experience of walking on the glacier.
This unmissable experience begins in the “Bajo de las sombras” port, within the Los Glaciares National Park.
The tour lasts approximately 2 hours and you will be able to enjoy the ice formations; learn about the flora, fauna and glaciology of the region; and, especially, on the phenomenon of rupture of the glacier.
Being a moderate walk, on an irregular but firm surface, it can only be done by people between 08 and 65 years old, due to its physical demands. Neither can pregnant women or people with reduced mobility, arthritis, prostheses, knee problems, meniscus problems, overweight people, or people with heart problems.
The activity does not include food, so you must bring your own lunch and a bottle of water (There is no possibility of buying food anywhere).
