Overview
Big Ice is a full day activity in which you’ll be able to enjoy Perito Moreno glacier from each and every angle possible: from the water, from the woods, bordering it by the moraine and walking over the ice with crampons.
The total duration of this tour leaving the port “Bajo las sombras” and turning back is about 7 hours and 30 minutes. The duration of the whole excursion with transfers from El Calafate is about 11 hours long. The Big Ice tour takes place in a natural environment so climate conditions and glacier’s characteristics vary on a daily basis !This allows us to enjoy different and non repeatable experiences in the prettiest glacier of the world!

Perito MorenoAs we arrive at the shelter the group will be greeted by the expert mountain guides, who will divide us into subgroups and join us in the hike assisting wherever is necessary and helping us to interpret the landscape. At the beginning,we’ll hike for 2 hours by the glacier’s moraine from where we observe different panoramic views of the glacier and the woods. Before our trekking on the glacier, the group shall stop to enjoy a picnic in the middle of nature. In this activity you won't find places to buy some food or beverage so you must bring it all the way from El Calafate.It is indispensable to the passengers to bring their food in the backpack.
-
Once lunch is over and the ice access point is reached, guides will provide assistance with the helmet, harness and crampons to get started with our 3 hour long trekking. THE BIG ICE IS HIGHLY PERSONALIZED. The groups on the ice will be up to 10 people, accompanied by two mountain guides. During the tour on the glacier you will see cracks, lagoons, streams, seracs and, occasionally, ice caves.
-
Perito Moreno GlacierAt the end of the ice trek the return will be undertaken by the same path that was taken previously until reaching the refuge, where you’ll have some minutes to admire the glacier one last time and take the boat trip back to the port.
