Purchase Perito Moreno glacier with falling ice (Argentina)

I never imagined it could be fascinating to watch a gletscher for hours. I was convinced by Perito Moreno.
Hidden from the outside world, not too far from the Chilean border in the south west of Argentina, lies the Perito Moreno glacier. This is one of the few glaciers in the world which is still advancing. It is situated on the shore of Lago Argentino, where the lake is very narrow. This fact has two implications. First, it means that the glacier can be observed from close by when standing on the other side of the lake. Sticking to the carefully designed paths is vital because of the danger of falling iceblocks causing enormous waves, which already have washed off several people before.
