Chubut River
| Hugging
to El Maitén in its travel to the patagonian
coast, Chubut river is an excellent alternative for the lovers of fly fishing
of trouts, salmons and perchs. There are some little and hidden places
where (with the pertinent permissions) you can be amazed by excellent exemplars.
Remember when you visit us that is ESSENTIAL to obtain the official fishing license. |

 |
But this isn't only fishing! In the Chubut riversides you can enjoy a refreshing ducking, or boat its water on a kayak, or stay floating by hours following the water course in an unforgettable experience. |
 |
Essential reference
points are the bridges over the Chubut river. The route bridge, accros the
#40 National route arrives to El Maitén,
and the rail bridge, used by The Old
Patagonian Express "La Trochita" to cross the water current.
Both of them are panoramic points of our little patagonian village. |

 |
And the autumn arrives... The explosion of ochres from the willows and poplars at the riverside adds to the fire of "lengas" (Nothofagus antarctica) on the western hills, generating a true symphony of colours beside the valley, for your eyes gladness. |
| In winter, the
snow and rains increases its caudal, variating from 4m³/sec in dry
season to more than 30 m³/sec in crescent season.
This alternance of caudal generates with the pass of years that the riverside terrains were covered by a fertile coat of humus, being them able for intensive agriculture. |
