Lago Yelcho and the Futaleufu River Valley - legendary fly fishing locations for brook, brown and rainbow trout - are located in the heart of Patagonia in Chile, about 800 miles south of Santiago and only ten miles from Argentina `s border.
Accented by turquoise lakes and rivers, glacier crowned mountains, lush plant life, and the small village of Futaleufu - this area is one of the top fly fishing destinations in the world.
Located beneath the Tres Monjas Peaks in the heart of the Futaleufu Valley lies the Condor Nest Fly Fishing Ranch. From this ranch Expediciones Chile offers a unique fly fishing vacation that can be found nowhere else in the world. Designed for physically fit anglers who want a more active fly fishing vacation, Expediciones Chile use its world class expedition and whitewater heritage to allow fly fishers access to the most rugged and hidden corners of Patagonia and the Futaleufu River- where others rarely (or never) fish.
The fly fishing ranch is surrounded by nature, with hundreds of acres bordering the Rio Futaleufu, Rio Azul and Las Cruces. The Condor Nest is accessible by water, foot, horse or helicopter.
Expediciones Chile invites you to come explore what they call "the best kept secret of Patagonia," a magical place where hundreds of glacial lakes are connected by thousands of kilometers of pristine rivers, all flowing through the dramatic Andean Mountain range. Be enchanted by its natural rhythms, where condors soar in southern thermals high above turquoise rapids thundering through rarely explored granite canyons. Futaleufu means "great great river" in Chile's native Mapuche language and its reputation has made it one of the most coveted fly fishing destinations in the world.
