Overview
El Calafate is home to the Glaciarium, one of the few glacier museums on Earth. El Calafate is named after a local berry that if eaten, legend has it, guarantees your return to Patagonia. Berries aside, after visiting majestic Los Glaciares National Park, trekking through the primordial Fitz Roy range or exploring the streets of El Calafate, your desire to return to Patagonia to see more will assuredly take root.
