Perito Moreno Glacier
El Chaltén

The town of El Calafate is the starting point for a visit to Los Glaciers National Park. Of all the impressive landscapes of our country, this is the one you will remember most. Huge blue icebergs floating on the milky turquoise waters, cracking sounds of huge ice pieces falling in the lake and the Immense Perito Moreno Glacier (UNESCO World Heritage Site) will leave you breathless.
