Today you'll spend visiting Glacier National Park and viewing the incredible Perito Moreno Glacier. If luck is with you, you will see parts of the wall of ice calve off and fall into the lake. The Perito Moreno Glacier is an enormous glacier located in the Los Glaciares National Park. It is one of the most important tourist attractions in Argentina due to its size and accessibility. It is less than two hours by bus from El Calafate, and the viewing platforms and trails make the visit easy and pleasant. The Perito Moreno glacier in Los Glaciares National Park, Argentina, is arguably the most famous glacier in the world. Covering an area of 250 square kilometers (96.5 square miles) and spanning 5 km (3 miles) in width, the Perito Moreno glacier is impressive to say the least. Los Glaciares was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1981, and since then the glacier has only increased in popularity, regularly making the news when another ice bridge forms and collapses. The glacier is also part of the Southern Patagonian ice field, which is the third largest frozen body of fresh water in the world. After exploring the park, you will be returned to your hotel in El Calafate alongside fellow travellers.
