Laguna Nimez Reserve — bird watching

Private visit to the Laguna Nimez Reserve in El Calafate for bird watching, with guide. A walk along the interpretive trail on the shore of Lago Argentino.

---

A few minutes from the centre of El Calafate, the Laguna Nimez Reserve stretches between the lagoon and the shore of Lago Argentino. The 3-kilometre trail runs flat, with signs identifying each species and observation platforms close to the water.

Between spring and summer the austral flamingos use the lagoon as a feeding area, and their pink colour stands out over the water alongside black-necked swans, cauquenes and wild ducks. Accompanied by a guide, the pace is unhurried, meant for stopping at each viewpoint and identifying the birds in detail.
