Perito Moreno Glacier Trail

Guided glacier trekking on the Perito Moreno Glacier is a specialized activity within Los Glaciares National Park. The glacier, covering approximately 250 square kilometers, is one of the few advancing ice masses in the Patagonian Andes. Access to the ice surface is strictly regulated and conducted via two primary excursion formats: the 'Minitrekking' (introductory) and the 'Big Ice' (extended exploration). Participants navigate a dynamic landscape of crevasses, moulins, and ice ridges using technical equipment under professional supervision. The experience provides a direct perspective on glacial movement and the hydrological processes of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field.

Deep within the Hohe Tauern National Park, the Prossautal is a valley that branches off the Kötschachtal near Bad Gastein. This long but mostly flat trail follows the Kötschach Ache river into a classic glacial box valley. The rock walls on either side rise significantly, with multiple thin waterfalls cascading down the granite faces. The trail ends at the Alpengasthof Prossau, a traditional alpine inn positioned near the base of the Tischler glacier.
