Florentino Ameghino Dam Trip

Discover the landscapes of Patagonia during our trip to the Florentino Ameghino dam, a key hydroelectric center for local inhabitants.

Florentino Ameghino Dike

At around 9 am, we will pick you up from your hotel in Puerto Madryn for a 125-mile journey southwest to the Florentino Ameghino dike.

This tour showcases the beauty of Argentina's Patagonia, as we traverse expansive plains and beautiful mountains in Chubut province.

After approximately two and a half hours of travel, we will arrive at the Florentino Ameghino dam, where our guide will take us through the tunnels inside the dam and to the summit of the concrete wall.

From the top, you will see two distinct landscapes: an emerald lake on one side and a red-rock canyon on the other, through which the Chubut river flows.

We will also visit the small settlement of Villa Dique Florentino Ameghino, home to around 200 residents. You can stroll through its streets and have the opportunity to try a regional dish of Patagonian lamb (not included).

After our visit, we will return to the vehicle and head back to your hotel, with an expected arrival time of 5 pm.
