General information

Destination
Puerto Natales, Chile

Program details

Explore Balmaceda and Serrano Glaciers, sailing through the Ultima esperanza fjord, then enjoy a typical Magellanic lunch at our ranch before heading back to Puerto Natales.

Weigh anchor to visit the Serrano and Balmaceda glaciers from the wharf in Puerto Natales in the morning, sailing next to the coast to go into in the sine surrounded by hills and forests, where if the conditions of the climate allows it, the sea elephants can be seen resting on the rocks and hundreds of cormorants ventilating their extended wings.



After 3 hours of navigation you arrive at Balmaceda hill (2,035 ms), with its summit covered with ice that falls in colossal snow drifts to the sea.

The boat comes near the Balmaceda snowdrift and stops in the Serrano snowdrift, where you land for a walk in the forest until the border of the lagoon full of icebergs and with a wonderful view of the hills and the Ultima Esperanza sine. Then we´ll make a stop at Perales Ranch, for a traditional Patagonian Lamb. The return to the wharf is made bordering the opposite shore of the sine.
