Perito Moreno Glacier Day Trip from El Calafate — Walkways, Calving & Wildlife

The road distance is about 80 km each way; expect roughly 1.5 hours each direction depending on stops and traffic.

There are long elevated boardwalks with stairs in places; some sections are accessible but not the entire circuit — check with operator for accessibility options.

Calving is unpredictable but frequent; tours allocate time at several viewpoints to increase the chance of witnessing large ice falls.

Standard full-day options often do not include the optional boat closer to the glacier’s face — confirm with the tour for upgrades or separate boat excursions.
