Perito Moreno Glacier, Los Glaciares National Park

(5,500+ reviews on the web)
Geologic Formation
Marvel at the immense, ice blue cliff face of Perito Moreno Glacier, which spills out into Argentino Lake. Every so often the sound of thunder echoes all around as a slab of ice cleaves off and plunges into the water below. Explore the walkways of the national park that faces the 250 sq km (97 sq mi) glacier, providing many different viewpoints and perspectives from which to admire the ice flow, as well as the surrounding, snow-capped mountains. For a closer look, take a boat tour out to where the wall of ice towers over you. The most adventurous travelers can hike on the glacier itself. Most of the park's walkways are wheelchair accessible. See Perito Moreno Glacier and all Los Glaciares National Park has to offer by arranging your trip with our Los Glaciares National Park trip itinerary builder.
