and transfer to the Pier to get on board at approximately
8 am everyday during summer season. After sailing
for about 15 minutes we will arrive at Bories Port,
and industrial place. One hour later, we will navigate
Señoret Channel, Eberhard Fiord and Ultima
Esperanza. After two hours navigation from Natales
Port, under normal conditions, we will reach “Cormoranes”
Colony, having hundreds of these birds, resembling
penguins. As we get nearer the Fiord, the landscape
becomes wilder and more attractive, for its vigorous
mountains. Now we have majestic Balmaceda Mount
before us, as well as the glacier bearing the same
name, being detached from the eastern side. This
mount is 2035 m high and there are very few antecedents
of its having been climbed up to its main peak.
The above mentioned glacier is in recession as nearly
all glaciers in the planet. After sailing for 4
hours, we will come alongside Puerto Toro pier;
walking about 1000 m. you can get to the glacier
on foot. Balmaceda and Serrano glaciers belong to
Balmaceda Mount National Park. You can see the mountains
of Paine from the ship. Return to Puerto Natales
and end of navigation. Transfer to hotel. |
