Workation in El Calafate: the essentials
Almost everyone comes to El Calafate for the Perito Moreno glacier, about 80 km away in Los Glaciares National Park, and the town on the southern shore of Lago Argentino is built around that traffic. Hotels, outfitters and restaurants line Avenida del Libertador, with dry, wind-blown steppe beginning just behind the last houses. It takes its name from a thorny bush with dark-blue berries that grows all over the region. As the service town of southern Patagonia it has banks, supermarkets and regular flights to Buenos Aires from Comandante Armando Tola International Airport, about 16 km out. Prices and crowds follow the season, and in winter much of the town goes quiet.
