Paddling near Resistencia, Chaco

Resistencia sits in the Chaco province at the confluence of the Gran Chaco wetlands and the Río Paraná system, one of South America's great river corridors. The city's paddling scene centers on the calm, wide waters of the Paraná and its associated lagoons and arroyos, with local tourism operators now running guided kayak excursions from the city. Further into the province, the Río Bermejito and the wilderness of El Impenetrable open up multi-day kayak journeys through remote Chaco forest.
