Estancia Las Buitreras

FreshwaterRío Gallegos — Estancia Las Buitreras, Güer Aike

Solid Adventures has run this lodge on Las Buitreras, a working sheep estancia on the Río Gallegos in southern Santa Cruz, since 2003, and the city of Río Gallegos is about 45 minutes away by road. Its private water covers more than 40 km with over 50 named pools, which up to 12 anglers a week wade for sea-run brown trout, two to a guide and truck, mostly with light two-handed or single-handed rods. There are six double rooms and two singles, and the home pool is a short walk from the lodge.
