Grey Glacier, Glacier in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile
The Grey Glacier extends over 6 kilometers in width and rises 30 meters above the water surface of Grey Lake in Chilean Patagonia.
The Grey Glacier remains a critical component of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, which formed during the last glacial period 100,000 years ago.
Local indigenous Kawésqar people maintained spiritual connections to the glacier territories, considering them sacred spaces within their ancestral lands.
Visitors can access the glacier through boat tours departing from Hotel Lago Grey or by hiking the western section of Torres del Paine's W Trek.
The glacier releases large sections of blue ice into Grey Lake, creating a natural spectacle of floating icebergs that drift across the water.
