Full Day Cristina Ranch & Upsala
I had a great time on the tour. The staff was awesome and the trip overall was fabulous!

I loved this tour! I would highly recommend it to others. Staff was very organized. My only one minor complaint would be that the hike was a bit too brisk and a bit too long. Maybe having a jeep take the group part way -- across that grassy plain -- would have allowed for the same hike at a slightly more leisurely pace. But overall it was a fantastic trip.

Very disappointed not to be able to visit the Upsala Glacier from Christina Ranch. This could easily have been arranged. We were unable also to see the glacier on the boat trip due to the icebergs being in the way too.

DESCPRIPTION

Estancia Cristina and Upsala Glacier tour starts at 6.45 am and first heads towards Punta Bandera port, where visitors sail off along the North Arm of Lake Argentino, surrounded by icebergs and magnificent landscapes.

Sailing goes on along Cristina Arm towards Estancia Cristina, which is the best land access to the glacier and the Continental Ice Fields, and offers a viewpoint overlooking Upsala Glacier. This glacier has two lower ends, which are approximately 4 kilometers (2.5 mi.) wide each, an area of around 900 square km (347 square mi.), and 60 kilometers (37 mi.) long. Front height reaches 60 meters (196 ft.) above lake level.

This proposal includes trekking involving different distances and difficulty, depending on weather conditions, and visiting the different points of interest in the historical estancia and its forests and valleys.

During lunch, a typical delicacy can be enjoyed: roasted Patagonian lamb with drinks and desserts, and also a special tea. Visitors sail back to Punta Bandera, arriving at about 6.30 pm.
