Glaciares Escondidos-Florian von der Fec

SOUTHERN GLACIERS EXPEDITION

8 DAYS | 7 NIGHTS

NOVEMBER TO APRIL

Horse Holiday in Argentina - Southern Glaciers

Ride through the low native forests, along the valleys and across the grasslands of the undulating hills, then navigate the lakes to arrive at the face of the glaciers. Watch the condors soar overhead, join the gauchos tending the cattle and sheep, then return to sit around the fireplace to hear about the incredible stories of the arrival of the pioneers in this untamed wilderness.
