The Grey Glacier is about 6 km wide, has a total area of 270 km² and is divided into 3 faces: west face, main face and east face. It is one of the more than 40 glaciers that are part of the Southern Ice Field, being also a place of discharge of fresh water from it.

Difficulty

First of all, we recommend to be in good physical shape to carry out the activity, as it demands a considerable expenditure of energy, especially in its first part. If you have physical problems or you are not used to practice this type of sports, it is not the right option for you.

Beginning of the excursion

The ice hike, exclusive to BigFoot, is an activity that lasts approximately 5 hours. The excursion begins with the displacement of our guides and passengers, through our boat, towards the island embedded in the middle of the glacier. Once there, we begin a hike that can last between 40 minutes and 1 hour until we reach the access to the ice. This route is uphill in rocky terrain and has a medium difficulty.

This activity has an age limit between 16 and 65 years.

Our activities, DO NOT include tickets to the Park and transportation.
