Unveil the mysteries of Argentina Patagonia
Argentine Patagonia is a land where untamed
landscapes meet extraordinary adventure. Towering peaks like the iconic Fitz Roy, vast steppes, and pristine rivers create a backdrop for unforgettable exploration. Whether you're fly fishing in crystal- clear waters, trekking across glaciers, or kayaking among southern right whales, every corner of this region holds a new, awe-inspiring experience. With its deep-rooted culture and unspoiled nature, Argentine Patagonia invites those in search of adventure to connect with its wild heart.
It's the northernmost region of Patagonia, known for its emblematic araucarias, millenary palm-shaped trees that thrive in the mountainous valleys and the slopes of volcanoes. Skiing among these forests is a spectacular experience. This region also has significant volcanic activity, with the most prominent being Lanín Volcano, which stands at 3,776 meters above sea level. This volcanic landscape offers many options for natural hot springs.
Nequén
This region is known for its excellent snow quality, receiving storms from both the east and west, making it an ideal destination for heliskiing. Its rivers, surrounded by dense lenga and coihue forests, create a jungle-like environment where fly fishing takes center stage, with rainbow and brown trout as the main attractions. These thick forests are also a place where any trekker would love to get lost.
Río Negro
Characterized by rich marine biodiversity, this region has coasts facing the Atlantic Ocean where it's common to spot southern right whales, penguins, and sea lions while kayaking, among many other species. Its lakes and forests in the mountainous regions are also a major attraction for adventurers who enjoy exploring on foot.
Chubut
This area offers activities for all tastes. On one hand, you can go ice hiking on glaciers surrounded by huge granite walls, or hop on a cataraft to search for brown trout in iconic Patagonian rivers. The estancias in this region allow you to enjoy both horseback riding and fly fishing, and even combine them. Finally, the extensive coastline features countless spots for marine wildlife watching while kayaking.
Santa Cruz
The southernmost region of Argentine Patagonia is home to one of the best rivers for fly fishing in the country. The Río Grande stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific, crossing both Chile and Argentina, and you can find everything from unique variations of brown trout to 10-kilogram Chinook salmon. Its snow-capped fjords are a spectacle for any kayaking enthusiast, and hiking in this area, while demanding due to weather conditions, can be a breathtaking experience.
