The Caleufú begins at the junction of the Meliquina and Filo Hua-Hum Rivers,  flowing through the northern reaches of Neuquén Province  before emptying into the Piedra del Águila reservoir. It’s widely regarded as one of the most beautiful rivers in the region: it begins as a mountain stream running through a canyon with unique rock formations, gradually giving way to an open valley in a desert-like landscape.  Notably, the Caleufú is probably the only river in the region that holds more browns than rainbows,  with fish over 20 inches caught regularly along its banks. Each day, we float a stretch of this exceptional 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 — 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’ll arrive at camp to enjoy fine wines, cocktails, and a hearty dinner, by the fire if weather conditions allow for it.

Tanto si eres un pescador experimentado como si eres principiante, nuestros campamentos son seguros, están bien organizados y son ideales para familias o grupos de amigos. ¡Todo está incluido y reservar es muy fácil!

The trip begins and ends in Bariloche. We meet at 7:00–8:00 AM at a designated point in Bariloche, then transfer toward the Caleufú put-in, a drive of around two and a half hours, following the paved Route 40 before continuing on the scenic gravel road known as Paso Córdoba.

Once the boat and gear are ready, we begin fishing around 9:00–10:00 AM, continuing until about 1:00 PM, when we pause for a riverside lunch. Afterward, we return to the water until approximately 4:00–5:00 PM, before arriving at that day’s campsite, moved downriver from the previous night’s location. There, our cargo boys and support team will have everything prepared so you can relax and unwind. Because the Caleufú is best floated early in the season, before dropping flows make it unfishable by boat, this trip is offered primarily from the season’s opening through early January.

As evening sets in, enjoy a freshly cooked dinner before resting for the next day’s adventure. After breakfast the following morning, we continue downstream, fishing new waters and exploring new stretches of river while the cargo boys go ahead to set up the next camp. This rhythm continues throughout your 3- to 4-day trip. On the final day, we take out and transfer back to Bariloche, returning you to your accommodation or original meeting point.

Amazing experience! Me and a friend went to the Limay River for a full day. Matías was super easy to talk to via Whatsapp, and did a great job coordinating and making sure we had everything we needed. Our guide was Tomas, who was also incredible; very easygoing and knowledgeable of the river and trout. The meal he prepared was perfect, relaxing with some wine and eating a steak right next to crystal clear water is an experience we won’t soon forget. I would 100% recommend this to anyone looking to get out and flyfish in the Patagonia!

Wonderful experience!! Had a fabulous time on the Limay River with Aliosha, our local guide. Easy float down the river with casting friendly pools. Lots of technical challenges as well. Aliosha is a master at positioning the drift boat tailored to our skill set. Was impressed with his knowledge of the river and pools. Gin clear water, easy to see a take before the fly disappears! Saw some 3-4 kg browns but couldn’t convince them to eat. Caught lots of bows! River side ‘lunch’ was superb, best I’ve ever had. Worth the float just for the scenery and lunch! If you want a pleasant day on the Limay and a shot at some trophy browns, give these guys a call!!

Fished with Aliosha. He was an amazing, patient, positive guide. The conditions were extremely challenging, but by the end I had caught the fish of a lifetime! What a crew! Fished a second day with Aliosha. Again he was fabulous. The food Matias put together was worth the trip in itself! The fishing was very challenging that day, but at the end, with much encouragement from Ali, we caught a brown trout of a lifetime. These guides are the BESt!

Outstanding fishing experience with Matías and Dante! We caught so many fish each day and the guide kept us focused on the big monster brown trout! If you like fish hard and be treated to a river doe Argentinian lunch with steak, wine, and cheese then this is the trip of a lifetime! We Flores the upper and lower section of the Rio Limay! I will be back!

Perfect day on the river. We are only beginners and the guide was very helpful and patient. We got lucky and caught tons of fish, but regardless it was beautiful to float down the river, enjoy nature and the gorgeous snow capped mountains.
