Argentinas glacier spectacular for visitors

Thu, 22 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT

The breathtaking scenery of the Perito Moreno Glacier could inspire many tourists to visit Argentina this year, it has been suggested.

Identified as one of the world's most beautiful places by the Telegraph this week, the glacier is 18 miles long and can be found in Patagonia's Los Glaciares national park.

According to the newspaper, the glacier offers "spectacular scenery, even by Patagonian standards" and visits can be combined with a trip to other must-see places such as the Torres del Paine national park in Chile.

The Perito Moreno is up to 2,300 ft deep and is one of 48 glaciers fed by the Southern Patagonian Icefield.

Shelter Offshore recently described Argentina, along with neighbouring country Brazil, as one of this year's emerging markets for affordable properties.

The website described the two nations as "stunning havens for those who love fabulous properties, wide open spaces [and] gorgeous countryside".
