Calafate
It is the scenery of imposing glaciers descending
from the continental ice field.
Thirteen glaciers on the Atlantic side break into
huge ice towers onto the waters of the lakes Viedma
and Argentino.
The front faces of the glaciers Perito Moreno,
Mayo, Spegazzini and Upsala fall upon the latter,
at a short distance from the
shores of the glaciers Agassiz, Onelli, Ameghino
and Frías.
Tertiary granite elevations covered with thick
Andean forests are part of this spectacle.
You can go sailing across the lakes to appreciate
more closely the front face of the glaciers. Go
trekking and climbing to the millenary ices.
