Restaurants throughout the area serve regional specialties like Patagonian lamb and calafate berry desserts. The neighborhood is highly walkable with hotels and hostels catering to every budget. Most visitors use the terminal's frequent bus service to reach the glaciers, though taxis are readily available for trips around town.
Macrozona Lago Argentino
Macrozona Lago Argentino serves up front-row glacier views that'll make your Instagram followers hate you a little bit. The turquoise waters of Lake Argentino stretch toward snow-capped peaks while lakeside trails lead to perfect spots for watching massive ice chunks crash into the water. Bird lovers can spot flamingos at Laguna Nimez, and adventure seekers can book ice-trekking tours right from the main strip. Patagonian steakhouses and lamb restaurants line the streets, with most places staying open late during summer months. Hotels and lodges feature huge windows framing those killer lake views. While public transit is limited, tour shuttles zip visitors between glaciers and town, making car rental optional for this slice of Patagonian paradise.

The neighborhood offers boutique guesthouses and vacation rentals with killer lake views instead of tourist crowds.

Cerro Calafate
Cerro Calafate sits on a hillside above El Calafate's bustling center, offering a slice of authentic Argentine residential life. The quiet streets give you a breather from tourist crowds while serving up stunning views of Patagonian landscapes. Modest homes with metal roofs and small gardens create a charming backdrop for travelers seeking the real deal.
