Paddling near Leandro N. Alem, Misiones

Leandro N. Alem sits in the rolling red-earth landscape of southern Misiones, a province defined by dense Atlantic Forest and a dense network of arroyos and rivers. The area's paddling centers on the smaller waterways close to town — particularly Arroyo Mártires and Arroyo Yabebiry — as well as the broader Río Uruguay corridor to the east. Campgrounds along Ruta Provincial 4, such as Don Alejandro on the Arroyo Mártires, serve as practical base points for kayakers and canoeists exploring these jungle-fringed streams.
