About Activity
Departing from Puerto Bandera, 50 km from El Calafate, board a modern vessel and cruise past floating icebergs toward Upsala Glacier — the second largest glacier in South America — and along the stunning Cristina Channel. At Estancia Cristina, founded by British settlers in 1914, explore the historic sheep shearing facilities now preserved as a museum and stroll along the Caterina River. A 4-wheel drive journey then climbs 10 km of mountain road to the Hielos Continentales lodge, where a hike across glacially sculpted terrain rewards you with breathtaking panoramic views.
