No. The boardwalks are self-guided once you have paid the park entry fee. Guides are only required for the ice treks. - How much is entry? The park charges a set foreigner entry fee at the gate. The figure is adjusted regularly, so check the official parks site or ask your transfer operator for the current amount. - Can I do the boat trip and boardwalks in one day? Yes, that is the standard full-day plan from El Calafate. Adding an ice trek makes it a longer day and needs advance booking. - Plan around the weather. October to April has the longest days and mildest weather. The glacier is there year round, but winter access is limited and cold. ## Pages ## Citation Independent affiliate visitor guide.
