The Chimehu\u00edn is arguably one of the most storied trout river in Patagonia, and considered by many to be responsible for putting Argentine fly fishing on the map. It\u2019s the most famed fly fishing river in the world for rainbow and brown trout, \ufffc and it has been the destination of choice for traveling anglers since the sport first took hold here. It winds through beautiful ranch lands past the town of Jun\u00edn de los Andes, \ufffcthe self-proclaimed National Trout Capital of Argentina, before joining the Coll\u00f3n Cur\u00e1. Each day, we float a stretch of this legendary water, fishing prime times from sunrise to sunset. Because camp relocates as we work our way downriver, a dedicated team of cargo boys handles the logistics \u2014 breaking down camp each morning and having it fully set up again at the next site by the time you arrive off the water. After a full day on the river, you\u2019ll arrive at camp to enjoy fine wines, cocktails, and a hearty dinner by the fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whether you\u2019re a seasoned angler or a first-timer, our camps are safe, well-organized, and ideal for families or groups of friends. Everything is included, and booking is easy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Accommodation on the Chimehu\u00edn River<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We camp in the wild, at carefully selected backcountry sites chosen for their comfort, shelter, and river access. Accommodation is in spacious, private tents outfitted with NRS cots, air mattresses, warm sleeping bags, pillows, and side tables. To ensure maximum comfort, we usually host just two guests in each four-person tent. Dedicated dining and kitchen tents guarantee a comfortable experience in all weather conditions. Our cargo boys move ahead each day to strike camp, transport gear, and rebuild the full setup at the next site \u2014 so everything is ready and waiting when you come off the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Trip Length & Options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This camp is fully flexible to your schedule and appetite for adventure. In its shortest form, 2 to 3 days on the Chimehu\u00edn alone already delivers everything that makes this river special \u2014 technical dry-fly fishing, legendary trout, and total wilderness immersion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For those with more time, we can extend the trip by 2 additional days, floating straight down into the Coll\u00f3n Cur\u00e1 to complete a 4- to 5-day combination expedition. This lets you experience two distinct river personalities in a single trip \u2014 the tighter, technical dry-fly water of the Chimehu\u00edn giving way to the big, braided freestone character of the Coll\u00f3n Cur\u00e1 \u2014 all without breaking camp discipline or losing a single day of fishing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What\u2019s included<\/strong>: What\u2019s not Included: <\/strong> Our multi-day camps on the Chimehu\u00edn \u2014 ranging from 2 to 5 days \u2014 offer the ultimate fly-fishing adventure in Northern Patagonia. Everything is included: transfers, camping and fishing equipment, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, drinks, and refreshments. We provide one of the most exclusive outdoor experiences Patagonia has to offer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5933,"menu_order":11,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"trip-type":[12],"class_list":["post-6010","trips","type-trips","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","trip-type-camp-expedition-fly-fishing-bariloche-patagonia-argentina"],"yoast_head":"\n
