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.
