Paddling near La Rioja, La Rioja
La Rioja sits in the arid northwest of Argentina, capital of its namesake province, surrounded by the Sierras de Velasco and the broader Pampean ranges. Paddling here centers on the reservoirs and rivers that cut through this dry landscape, with Dique Los Sauces — just outside the city — the most accessible flatwater destination for kayakers and SUP paddlers.
