Paddling near San José de Metán, Salta

San José de Metán sits in the subtropical foothills of Salta province, about 145 km south of the provincial capital along Ruta Nacional 9/34. The area's main draw for paddlers is the Río Juramento, a regulated river whose flow is stabilized by the Dique Cabra Corral (Embalse General Belgrano) upstream, making it one of the few waterways in the region that runs with reasonable consistency beyond the summer rain season. The Lago Embalse El Tunal and Embalse Cabra Corral also provide flatwater options within the broader region.
