A stunning 150-mile-long passage punctuated by magnificent hanging and tidewater glaciers, Glacier Alley is one of the highlights of an expedition cruise through the Beagle Channel in Tierra del Fuego, Patagonia, and for good reason. This beautiful stretch of water, also known as "Avenida de los Glaciares," is lined with impressive glaciers descending from the Darwin Mountain Range into the channel below. When cruising through Glacier Alley by expedition ship, you’ll experience towering ice formations, cascading waterfalls, and dramatic mountain peaks. The glaciers are named after European countries—such as Spain, France, Germany, Holland, and Italy—each displaying unique ice formations and colours ranging from bright white to deep blue.
