The Perito Moreno glacier in Los Glaciares National Park is one of the few glaciers in the world that is not retreating — it advances at 2 m per day and periodically creates an ice dam across the Brazo Rico channel, which then breaks spectacularly. Ice trekking on the glacier surface with crampons takes you across a blue-white world of seracs, moulins, and crevasses that calve into the turquoise lake with thunder. The catwalks opposite offer free viewing; the ice trek is the upgrade.
