El Calafate is an important tourist destination as the hub to visit different parts of the Los Glaciares National Park, including the Perito Moreno Glacier (one of the most visited in the world) and the Cerro Chaltén and Cerro Torre.
The name El Calafate is derived from a little bush with yellow flowers and dark blue berries that is very common in Patagonia: the calafate.
The berries make a delicious jam to spread on toast at breakfast.
