El Calafate - Private Travel

At the southern tip of South America, El Calafate promises chic, frosty fun, with the open Patagonian ice fields as your personal playground.

On the southern shore of Lago Argentino at the edge of the Southern Patagonia Ice Field, the town of El Calafate is well-known as the gateway to Los Glaciares National Park and the Perito Moreno Glacier. At almost 100 square miles of ice, one-third of the world’s reserve of fresh water, the glacier is one of the few in the world that is not shrinking.

Prepare yourself for breathtaking lake views and incredible parkland –

sights that will be forever etched into your mind.

El Calafate itself is cheerful and charming, the main roads replete with artisanal food and drink, souvenirs and chocolatiers, Patagonian barbecue and craft breweries.

In addition to scenic glacier cruises, glacier trekking and kayak tours, visitors drop in at the Glaciarium, a full museum with displays and films about the region’s

ice fields – and an ice bar to enjoy afterward. The Reserva Laguna Nimez bird sanctuary at the water’s edge north of town sees flocks of flamingos, black-necked swans, red-gartered coots, sparrow hawks, lapwings and ducks. And the Centro de Interpretacíon Historico brings both the human and natural history of the region together – over the last 100 million years or so.
