Paddling near Pico Truncado, Santa Cruz
Pico Truncado sits in the Patagonian steppe of Santa Cruz province, a cold, wind-swept plateau where the Río Deseado valley runs nearby. The area around the city is known for its stark desert landscape and ravines rather than a dense network of paddling venues, but the Río Deseado and the still waters of Laguna de los Patos provide the closest on-water access for kayakers and paddlers exploring this corner of Argentine Patagonia.
