Fishing at Escondido Lake

Angling Experience at Remote Mountain Lake Cast a line and test your luck during an unforgettable fishing expedition into the heart of Tierra del Fuego. The waters of the lakes, rivers and streams of southern Argentina are home to a variety of fish, including the sought-after Patagonian salmon. You will travel north to the remote Escondido Lake, or “hidden lake,” an idyllic location surrounded by dense forests and steep mountain ranges at 3,200 feet above sea level. Upon arrival, you will receive your fishing gear and discover the methods used by your experienced guide to capture Patagonian salmon, as well as rainbow, brown, and brook trout. From the shore, try your hand at either fly-fishing or spin fishing. If you are lucky, your patience will be rewarded with a prize catch. Photograph yourself with your trophy before releasing it back into the wild. At the end of your excursion, you will return to your ship. * Moderate - Walking portions may be long and somewhat challenging with occasional step-ups, stairs and inclines.
