Rivera del Lago 4x4 Tour

The Rivera del Lago 4x4 Tour is a fun winter activity that takes you to explore El Calafate’s dramatic landscapes safely and comfortably aboard a specially equipped vehicle. Enjoy exciting mountain activities, while a fire is prepared, and delicious food laid out to delight your palate.

This Rivera del Lago 4x4 excursion starts in El Calafate, where you’ll board a 4x4 Land Rover Defender, adapted to provide maximum safety and comfort in rough terrain. The tour will begin driving for about 5km on a paved road before reaching a dirt road where the journey through the estancia fields begins, in the direction of the coast of Lake Argentino. The idea of this 4x4 adventure is to recreate the voyage made by former wool merchants of El Calafate who, in their mission to transport the goods and sell them, would stop off at this point along the banks of the river, where they found protection under the bushes, in order to recharge their energy for the rest of their journey. After eating by the fire, start the return journey via a different route that joins the road in front of Cerro Comisión, where you will travel 10km more along an asphalt road before arriving back to El Calafate.
