Full-Day Glaciar Sur Aventura Trek & Navigation

Itinerary

Begin your adventure with pick-up from your hotel in El Calafate around 7:30 AM, heading to Puerto Pioneros to board your boat for a scenic navigation across Lago Argentino.

Upon reaching the shores of Lago Frías, you’ll disembark and begin a 13-kilometer guided hike through the remote Patagonian wilderness. The trail passes through forests, rocky terrain, and scenic valleys, gaining and losing elevation (±70 meters). Trekking poles are included for your comfort and stability.

If weather allows, you’ll enjoy your picnic lunch facing the glaciers. In case of strong wind or rain, the group will retreat to a dome refuge near Lago Frías, where hot drinks and shelter await.

Throughout the day, your expert bilingual guides will share insights on the region’s geology, flora, and fauna. The hike is demanding but rewarding, offering stunning landscapes and a feeling of true immersion in the Patagonian wilderness.

At the end of the hike, return by boat to Puerto Pioneros, and from there, continue back to El Calafate, arriving around 7:00 PM.
