Feel the rush of adrenaline driving around Estancia Cristina at full speed in an off-roading vehicle. This tour also includes a boat ride on the Upsala glacier.

Activity Details

When we're all gathered at the Estancia Cristina pier, we'll board the off-road vehicles to enjoy a 4WD route through one of the most beautiful landscapes of El Calafate. Aboard the jeep, we'll travel through the Feruglio mountain range, enjoying the glacial environment. Afterward, we'll start a 20-minute walk to the Upsala Glacier viewpoint, which offers stunning views of this natural site.

While at the viewpoint, we'll discuss the geological characteristics of Argentinean Patagonia and share facts about Upsala being the third-largest ice sheet in the world.

We'll take a break to eat and recover our strength. You'll have two Argentinean empanadas, lamb casserole, or pasta with pesto, and a flan, along with wine or soda and coffee or tea.

Afterward, we'll visit the main areas of Estancia Cristina to learn about the local lifestyle. Finally, we'll board a boat to return to the pier, starting our way back to El Calafate at 8 pm.
