Alberto de Agostini National Park

The park encompasses the Darwin Mountain Range, featuring deep fjords, glaciers, and untouched forests across 14,600 square kilometers of Patagonian territory.

The area received national park designation in 1965, named after Italian priest Alberto Maria de Agostini who explored and documented the region through photographs.

The waters surrounding the park were home to the Yámana indigenous people, who developed fishing techniques in the Beagle Channel over thousands of years.

Access to the park requires maritime transportation from Punta Arenas, with private companies offering scheduled navigation routes through established tourist circuits.

The Marinelli Glacier stands as the largest ice formation in the park, presenting a 40-meter-high front wall and covering 135 square kilometers.
