Prirodni spektakl u južnoj Argentini

Objavljeno: 09.03.2017

After traveling on different routes for some time, we have now regrouped and traveled to El Chaltén in southern Argentina with our German friend Lisa. But quite exhausted from the 21-hour bus ride, we were looking forward to some movement in the next few days. The region is Argentina's hiking paradise and truly lives up to this title. A 4-hour hike took us to Laguna de los Tres at the foot of the famous and impressive Fitz Roy massif. After the steep ascent, the granite peaks of Fitz Roy awaited us at the top and we braved the cold, wind, and light rain to admire the incomparable view. We were lucky that the rest of the hike had good weather and we could enjoy the sun.

The next day we went on a hike to Laguna Torre. The path led us through Patagonian forests in again perfect weather to the glacial lake of the Torre Glacier. On the moraine, we walked a little further up and admired the view of the lake, the glacier, and the steep Cerro Torre.

The next destination was El Calafate, located a bit further south. Here, we had been looking forward to a highlight of the trip for a long time: the Perito Moreno Glacier. It is almost impossible to grasp the dimensions of this glacier when standing in front of the 70m high and 5km wide ice wall. The Glacier is 32km long and one of the few in the world that is not shrinking, moving up to 2m per day. Since the glacier is constantly moving, there are constant cracking, groaning, and thundering sounds. The sound is extremely impressive. It gets even better when you see the associated ice blocks falling. A supposedly 'small' piece can easily be the size of a car. However, we were truly amazed when a huge ice block with an area of ​​about 50x70m broke off right in front of our eyes with a loud noise. That was definitely an unforgettable experience.
