What makes El Calafate Expedition: 4WD Adventure with Optional Hike-Zipline a unique experience ?
From El Calafate we'll begin our ascent to the Huyliche mountain range. The journey starts by traversing the slopes of the Calafate Stream Canyon, where we'll have the opportunity to spot native wildlife such as guanacos, foxes, hares, loicas, bandurrias, caranchos, and falcons, among other species. We'll then continue along the winding uphill path surrounded by erratic blocks, remnants of the glaciers' erosive power, until we reach the First Balcony.
We will go to the upper balconies where we will find the view of the Andes Mountains, the Patagonian Continental Ice and all the arms of Lake Argentino.
