El Calafate is a small town located in the Patagonia region of Argentina. The town is home to the beautiful Perito Moreno Glacier, from which the sounds of the ice cracking can be heard 24 hours a day. Be sure to try Chacho's Restaurant, where you can enjoy a fine meal while viewing the glacier. Or, visit one of the town's ranches, such as El Galpon del Glaciar Ranch or Rincón Ranch, most of which offer horseback riding.
