Safari Azul – Dream of getting close to the Glacier

About this trip

The excursion starts in El Calafate, where a bus heads to Los Glaciares National Park. Upon reaching Puerto Bajo de las Sombras, a 20-minute boat ride across Lago Rico follows, leading to the opposite shore. A 30-minute walk alongside the glacier’s south wall ensues, offering a chance to witness its majestic blues, whites, and unique shapes up close. Guided by experienced professionals, participants can capture the beauty through photographs before returning to the starting point. The entire hike lasts about 1.30 hours, covering approximately 1.5 kilometers of natural terrain, including sand, stones, slopes, and stairs, along the lake’s shore and through a lush forest with glacier views. Afterward, another boat ride provides an opportunity to admire the glacier’s south face from the water, observing every intricate detail of the icy marble wall. Those opting for a transfer service with Hielo y Aventura can continue to the footbridges, where they have 2 hours to enjoy the panoramic view. Alternatively, visitors with their transportation can choose their visit time and explore the area at their leisure.
