A guided fly fishing package spanning 5 nights and 4 days in Patagonia
A trip built around wading one day and floating the next, with access to public and private rivers and lakes near Río Pico, in the heart of Chubut. La Loma is a lodge in the middle of nowhere, and that's the point: no spa, no scenic flights, just real time on the water with a guide who knows which stretch is worth fishing that week.
Each day's destination is chosen around what you'd like to see — there are several rivers and lakes to pick from, and your guide helps decide which is worth it based on the season and water conditions. The program comes fully guided, day by day. If you'd rather fish on your own for a day, we can talk it through when planning your trip — in that case, we offer vehicle and fishing gear rental as add-on services. All fishing is catch-and-release.
**We'll pick you up at Esquel airport and take you straight to the lodge to start the trip.
Evenings wind down with home-cooked meals (red meat, white meat, pasta, vegetables, fruit), one drink included with every meal, and a Patagonian night with spit-roasted lamb, homemade empanadas and flan.

Itinerary
Day 1
Arrival at the lodge
After a three-hour drive through open Patagonian steppe, you reach the lodge as the light starts to fade. An artisanal appetizer platter, a good aperitif, and dinner with wine and dessert are waiting — or, if the timing works, head out to try the water that same afternoon before sitting down to eat.
Day 2
Fishing · Guided · Wading
Wading puts you right in the current, reading the water step by step in search of brown and rainbow trout in stretches only reachable on foot — it could be the Pico River, Píldoras Creek, or one of the nearby lakes, depending on how the week is fishing. Back at the lodge: breakfast before heading out, lunch riverside or packed to go, an afternoon snack, and a full dinner with an appetizer platter, wine and dessert.
Day 3
Fishing · Guided · Float
Floating covers far more water in a day than wading ever could, drifting past stretches most anglers never reach — the Nilson River, the Pampa River, Lake Vintter, or one of the other lakes, depending on what the guide picks that week. Same rhythm of meals: breakfast, lunch by the water, an afternoon snack, and dinner with appetizers, wine and dessert.
Day 4
Fishing · Guided · Float
Your guide picks the water based on how the week has fished so far — sometimes that means back in the current, sometimes it means the boat, always chasing the same brown and rainbow trout that make this a real fishing destination. Same meal rhythm as the days before: breakfast, lunch by the water, an afternoon snack, an appetizer platter, dinner with wine and dessert.
Day 5
Departure from the lodge
One last breakfast with the week's best stories still fresh, a packed meal for the road, and departure from La Loma Lodge toward Esquel.
