  • Upsala Glacier, El Calafate, Argentina
    Estancia Cristina has the great advantage of being extremely close to the Upsala Glacier, one of the most awe-inspiring sights in Los Glaciares National Park that’s only a few kilometers from our lodge. Perhaps the most unforgettable experience when staying with us is cruising along the waters of Lake Argentino, with soaring mountains and icebergs as a dramatic backdrop before reaching the face of mighty Upsala itself.
  • Lago Argentino, El Calafate, Santa Cruz, Argentina
    Estancia Cristina is tucked away in a pristine, north-westerly corner of Lake Argentino in Los Glaciares National Park, right at the furthest end of the Cristina Channel near the incredible Upsala Glacier. Our rural ranch is steeped in history, founded over a century ago in 1914 by Joseph and Jessie Masters, who came from the UK to start a new life in this beautiful yet utterly remote place.
    360 minutes
  • Lago Argentino, El Calafate, Argentina
    We will glide over the waters of Lake Argentino’s Northern Arm to reach the furthest possible point of navigation in the Upsala Channel, where we can enjoy an incredible panoramic view of the Upsala Glacier’s immense front.

We absolutely loved our stay at Estancia Cristina. The boat ride over, the welcoming staff, the horseback rides, the hikes, the views, the rooms, the food... all were over-the-top great. A total highlight of my family (2 adults + 2 children)'s time in Patagonia. This was a splurge experience for us, and I'm so glad that we made the decision to do it. We stayed 2 nights and were able to pack a lot of activities into the time there, though we would have loved to stay longer if we could. If the estancia ia an option for you, book it!

For best gourmet lunch with a cruise, this is it! Great 6k hike but there is a 14k if you want longer. Primarily focused on Upsala glacier. Great staff and hospitality.
