Located along the Beagle Channel in Chile's Tierra del Fuego.

Wikipedia's brief article (visit link) informs us:

"Romanche Glacier is a glacier located in Alberto de Agostini National Park, Chile. A cascade from the glacier tumbles into the Beagle Channel."
I think access is only obtained by approved maritime travel through the Beagle Channel.
I saw the glacier and photographed it from the Holland America Zaandam on a cruise around South America. There are at least two arms of the glacier that can be seen from the Channel...the most striking however is the arm with the waterfall.
