Excursion

Grey Lake is nearly 17 kilometers long and 4 kilometers wide, with several capes, peninsulas, and coves, primarily fed by the glacier. The excursion takes you to the east side of the ice wall, where we have different spots for an unforgettable experience. From the water, you have the opportunity to immerse yourself in a unique landscape, surrounded by Paine Grande hill, Olguín range, the glacier itself, among many other panoramic views.
At the beginning, you will be provided with a wetsuit and neoprene boots, waterproof jacket, helmet, spray skirt, life jacket, and a paddle with built-in gloves, and you will receive a safety briefing.
You will navigate in an area of icebergs, which often get stuck in the bay, creating an unrepeatable scenario.
The tour revolves around the icebergs lodged in the bay and adjacent areas to the bay, with a kayaking duration of approximately 1.5 hours and a maximum distance of 4 – 5 kilometers.

For safety reasons, kayaking does NOT reach the front of Glacier Grey.

– The schedule of this activity may be modified due to weather conditions or the physical conditions of the passenger.
– The excursion may be suspended due to bad weather, which implies weather conditions such as strong winds, rain, and snow.
