Patagonian Lakes & Glaciers

This collection highlights the dramatic landscapes of the Northern and Southern Patagonian Ice Fields across Chile and Argentina.

These sites represent the remnants of the ancient Patagonian Ice Sheet, forming one of the largest freshwater reserves outside the polar regions. The list showcases the unique geography of the Andes, where massive ice plateaus meet deep, glacier-fed lakes.
