Paddling near Villa Ángela, Chaco

Villa Ángela sits in the Chaco province of northeastern Argentina, a flat, subtropical region defined by rivers, wetlands, and gallery forest. The area around the city is shaped by the waterways of the Chaco plain, and Parque Nacional El Chaco — the only national park in the province — is the marquee destination for paddlers looking to explore the region's calm, wildlife-rich waters by kayak or canoe.
