Don't miss a visit to this glacier which may not be here in 20 years. The visit by boat includes seeing many beautifully shaped icebergs that have calved off.

Worth the rough boat ride, the glacial winds that literally knock you down, and the 4x4 trek to see this beauty up close!

Very beautiful place

The glaciers of Patagonia are a gift of nature and it is unfortunate that one of the largest in the region is now in retreat. due to this same reason it was no longer possible to go close to the glacier on boat in winter when i visited in July 2019.
