Navigating the lake while getting amazed about the southern wall of the Perito Moreno Glacier views. Walking the footbridges located right in front of the Perito Moreno Glacier wall, and listening to the ice breaking, is a breathtaking experience. The most complete experience to discover Perito Moreno glacier with Howlanders! You can choose to include the pick-up from El Calafate or get to Los Glaciares park on your own.
