Spegazzini glacier

Spegazzini Glacier is a hugely impressive sight, if for no other reason than the sheer size of its wall, which can tower as high as 135 metres (440 feet).
Spegazzini Glacier has a high calving face, giving origin to icebergs of very different shapes and colors. The glacier is grounded on the bottom of the lake, which in this area is around 150 meters. Spegazzini Glacier is another exception to the general retreat of Patagonian glaciers: From 1968 to 2010, the ice front retreated just 150 m, with a loss of only 0.07 km².
Due to the stability of the glacier, the boats are allowed to go much deeper into the fjord almost right next to the glacier wall.
Here we saw much more icebergs and after taking a lot more pictures near the icebergs, our catamaran went much closer to the glacier wall.Read more
