COLLON CURA
Estancia Collon Cura, is a 93,000 acre ranch with exclusive access to 15 miles of river including the best spots assuring an unforgettable fishing experience.
This Northern Patagonia River collects the waters from various other tributaries as it flows from North to South and all shed their waters into the famous Collon Cura river, creating a lot of biodiversity that allows this river to be an extremely productive one.
The Lodge is located just 35 minutes driving distance from San Martin de los Andes Airport and 2,5 hors driving distance from Bariloche Airport.
With 4 double rooms with private bathrooms, guests can enjoy a full house service focused on every detail.
Led by our internationally experienced chef, day starts with a Continental Breakfast composed of our in-house baked bread, fresh fruits, cereals, eggs, bacon, jam among others.
The Collon Cura River is a very versatile river that can be fished with streamers, nymphs and dries throughout the entire season. Filled with strong rainbows and browns, “leader shy” and very fun to fight with.
Experience fishing in one of the world's best spots.
The ranch has multiple access points throughout to allow you to fish the very best stretches of the river, giving the angler the possibility to choose the length of the stretch to fish, and the guide to choose the best fit for the time of year or type of fishing.
Floating or wading options are available, and even choosing to fish our secret lagoons late in the season!
This river is perfect for beginners and veterans alike with awarding riffle-run- pool’s and exciting willow lined banks.
