Argentina Viewpoint to Hielo Azul glacier near El Bolson, Argentina

The glacial lake Hielo Azul has a very special turquoise color. On the way down to the lake, you can photograph it from many great different perspectives. It's also worth taking a look back at the hiking trail you came along. Here you also have a great view.

Your lens should be as wide -angled as possible. I used 16mm on a full -frame camera and it wasn't enough. That's why I put several portrait pictures together into a panorama.

I visited this place on a multi-day trekking tour near El Bolson. The landscapes are beautiful and there are great hiking trails. You can spend the night in the refuges.
Day 1 Refugio Hielo Azul, day 2 Refugio Natacion, day 3 Refugio Cajon del Azul, day 4 Refugio Tronconado. Especially in the area around Cayon Azul you will have many opportunities to stay overnight in refugios or to camp. There are buses to the starting points of the hikes and you can get detailed information at the tourist information office in El Bolson.

The path to the Hielo Azul glacier was poorly marked, steep and slippery in places. It is not a long route, but you need a lot of time in this difficult terrain.
