Paddling near General Roca, Río Negro

General Roca sits in the upper Río Negro valley in the province of Río Negro, at the heart of Patagonia's fruit-growing region. The Río Negro flows close to the city, and the confluences of the Río Neuquén and Río Limay are nearby, making flatwater river paddling the dominant local activity. Kayak and canoe routes along the Río Negro — including the General Roca to Cervantes stretch — are the most-used runs in the immediate area.
