Ice Trekking in El Calafate — FAQ
What is mini-trekking on Perito Moreno?
Mini-trekking is a guided walk of around 1.5 hours on the surface of the Perito Moreno glacier with crampons, exploring its ice formations, crevasses and blue pools.
What is the difference between mini-trekking and Big Ice?
Mini-trekking is a shorter, accessible walk on the ice, while “Big Ice” is a longer, more demanding trek deeper onto the glacier, for fitter, more adventurous visitors.
Do you need experience for glacier trekking?
No — mini-trekking is suitable for most reasonably fit adults, with guides and crampons provided; Big Ice requires better fitness and has age limits.
