Estancia Rio Pelke counts with private access to the best 5 trout rivers in Santa Cruz province, located only an hour and a half drive from the cities of El Calafate and Rio Gallegos.
Fly fishing for trout in these small rivers demand a unique approach and different techniques for brown and brook trout.
These rivers have been outside of the fishermen radar, the reasons why theykeep such good numbers and sizes. The ideal place for both experienced fly fishermen as well as those willing to learn from highly qualified instructors.
A short and enriching story of two different worlds bounded by nature.
