One truly surprising experience in Perito Moreno National Park is the visit to Lake Moreno and Cerro San Lorenzo, for what it is convenient to book a room in one of the estancias nearby so as to enjoy in complete peace the unique beauty of this landscape. |

In the National Park you will see the plataux covered in pebble and volcanic slag heaps alternating with creeks and slopes covered by coiron bushes. |

Within this environment lake Belgrano, Burmeister, Escondido, Volcán, Nansen, Azara, Mogote, Península and the river and rapids of the river Lácteo imply a difference in the landscape for their constant humidity that enriches little forests and green lands inhabited by guanacos and American ostriches. |

To the south of the river Burmeister you can see some petrified trees of more than 10 m. height and in the north east of the park, over Sierras Coloradas, you can see the fossils of extinguished animals and petrified wood. |

On the shore of Lake Belgrano, which is surrounded by snow capped peaks in the shape of an amphitheatre, you can see the chain where Cerro San Lorenzo is, with its 3.706m. height, a mountain whose peak has been reached by mountaineers from different parts of the world. |
