Top 15 Ice Trekking Trips in Argentina

1.Beagle Channel Navigation with Minitrekking

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 642 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $80Our pick

Half-day Beagle Channel cruise from Ushuaia with a short Isla Bridges trek, wildlife viewing, and lighthouse views.

“Slow boat out to the channel. Hits 3 spots. An island with lots of birds. An island with some sea lions and then an inhabited island with interesting flora. The first two you only stay for a couple of minutes to take pictures. The scenery of the channel is nice but there are much faster boats around that likely you can get around faster and see more. Guide was not particularly engaged (particularly for English speakers), but maybe it was just an off day.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 30 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $704

Hike through Patagonian forest, then walk inside Perito Moreno Glacier with crampons and expert guides on a small-group full-day tour.

“My tour was overbooked and canceled last minute the night before, although they were able to get me rescheduled on the smaller/shorter trek for the same day. The trekking itself was an eye opening experience and tons of fun. Our guides were pretty laid back, and so we were given the freedom to walk around as long as we were within their sights / still in the same general area. The tour dates sell out well in advance though, so call in and ask.”

10.Big Ice Perito Moreno Trek with Walkways and Navigation

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 24 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $572

Big Ice Perito Moreno trek with crampons, harness, and boat rides, plus optional walkways. Walk the ice near a 60m wall from El Calafate.

“One of the best excursions I've been on....in the world. This is a very unique experience to trek across the glacier for three hours. Saw ice caves large enough to walk in, waterfalls, and lakes...all in the middle of the glacier. We had three very knowledgeable guides who always put our safety first and kept eyes on the group. The lead guide spoke English well and with the small group size it was easy to catch all of the educational details about the glacier. The crampons are very basic and rudimentary. With the way they strap to your feet, it is better to wear hiking boots since they are sturdier.…”

11.Big Ice: Explore the heart of the Perito Moreno Glacier

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 21 reviews · 450 minutes - 12 hours · from $406

Big Ice is a tough, guided trek on the Perito Moreno Glacier from El Calafate, with crampons, boat rides, and walkway views.

“So amazing!! This brand is probably the most popular one to do a day trip with, so I would recommend choosing Hielo y Aventura. The guides were amazing, transportation efficient, and the trek was great. We were inky on the ice for around 3 hours as opposed to the advertised 6, but it was so worth it. Lots of treats and goodies along the way. Great experience!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 19 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $711

Small-group minitrekking over Perito Moreno Glacier from El Calafate, with crampons, boat views on Brazo Rico, and an expert guide.

“Excellent tour, fantastic tour, great guides. Trekking on ice is an amazing experience, well equipped (don't forget the gloves because the ice cuts). Mandatory use of Crampons that are provided. The boat trip, the walk in the forest and the walk on the “passerelas” allow you to take amazing photos of Perito Moreno and above all enjoy this fantastic glacier. Unmissable. What went wrong and could have been even worse: NAUTILUS VIAJES. We were never able to talk to them (phone and email without answer), no one knew them and Viator was not the intended help. After several hours talking to several local agencies we found out that our reservation…”
