Moreno Spirit: Sailing in front of the North Face of the Glacier

Approach the glacier's rupture zone from the water. Moreno Spirit is a navigation of 1 hour that takes you to the front of the north face of the Perito Moreno Glacier, exactly where the famous landslides occur.

The boarding is in Puerto Moreno, located at the foot of the walkways and next to the Canal de los Témpanos. During the navigation, a bilingual guide will explain the formation of the glacier and its unique phenomena.

This experience is the ideal complement for the Perito Moreno Glacier Tour (Walkways). If you're already on the walkways, add this boat trip to see the glacier from a completely different perspective.

Which one is right for you?

If you're already on the walkways and want to see the glacier from the water → I chose Moreno Spirit. It's the perfect complement: you sail for an hour along the north face, exactly where the most spectacular calving events occur. From the water, you get a true perspective of the glacier's height (60 meters). Puerto Moreno is just steps from the walkways.
If you prefer the south wall with more floating icebergs → I chose Nautical Safari. Also a 1-hour boat ride, but from Puerto Bajo Las Sombras on Brazo Rico. The south face tends to have larger calving events, and the icebergs float longer. It's a less busy area than the Iceberg Channel.
If you want to live a complete experience combining sailing, trekking and glaciers in a single day → I chose May Spirit Trek. Sail for 3 hours through the remote Mayo Sound, seeing the hanging glaciers of Cerro Mayo and Cerro Negro. Disembark at Bahía Toro for a 2-hour trek through pristine Patagonian forest, and finish at the Perito Moreno Glacier walkways. Full day with box lunch included. Moderate difficulty.
If you are looking for an active adventure paddling between icebergs → I chose Kayak Experience. You'll paddle a double kayak for 2 hours through the Brazo Rico, dodging icebergs, with a safety guide. You'll also go trekking through the Patagonian forest. A moderate level of fitness is required.
