Stoppani Glacier, Valley glacier in Alberto de Agostini National Park, Chile

The Stoppani Glacier flows from the Cordillera Darwin mountain range and extends approximately 12 kilometers before reaching Yendegaia Bay in southern Chile.

The glacier received its name from Italian geologist Giorgio Stoppani, who conducted extensive research on glaciers and climate patterns in the early 1900s.

The glacier forms part of the Alberto de Agostini National Park, which protects the natural heritage of Tierra del Fuego and its native ecosystems.

Access to Stoppani Glacier requires advanced mountaineering skills and proper equipment, with guided expeditions available during the summer months from December to March.

The glacier functions as the source of the Yendegaia River, contributing to the regional water system through its continuous ice melt process.
