Trip members can  expect to do a variety of types of fishing. Some of the rivers are best suited for sinking lines and wooly buggers to catch the large Brown Trout, and some of the other rivers and lakes are suited for dries, to catch Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout. In addition to fishing, we offer horse back riding, rafting, with exotic wildlife viewing including guanocos, condors, andean deer and flamingos.
