Paddling near Río Turbio, Santa Cruz


Río Turbio sits in the far southwest of Santa Cruz province, in Argentine Patagonia near the Chilean border. The surrounding landscape is open steppe cut by slow-moving rivers and dotted with lagunas, making the area suited to flatwater paddling. The Río Turbio itself and the broader Río Coig system are the marquee nearby waters for kayakers and canoeists exploring this remote corner of the province.
