Most of the rivers and lakes of the region are apt to practise this activity. Most of the rivers and lakes of the region are apt to kayak and canoe, kayak is better for fast rivers and the canoe for navigation in lakes and rivers of low flow.
Winter and spring are the seasons in which there is more water with very good flows, although the temperature is very low. The lack of water can be noticed in summer and autumn.


Limay River
It is a good alternative for kayaking beginners, for open canoes and for floating on rafts.

How to arrive:
this voluminous river is born 18 km. far from Bariloche city on the east extreme of Lake Nahuel Huapi. It is easily accessible in many places of public access and in other places you have to ask permission to the people that live on the coast. From its source the public access places are: Boca, Puente Viejo, Rincón Chico, Anfiteatro, Villa Llanquín, Antiguo Guardaparque y Confluencia Traful.

Description:
the stretch between Rincón Chico and Villa Llanquín is the most interesting one, because of its landscape and some innocent rapids. After Villa Llanquín the river goes on softly up to the Confluencia, flooded by Alicura Dam. Play spots: Puente Viejo; with an intermediate defrosting level there’s a hole up above and a wave to surf in Neuquén’s edge; a diagonal wave up above and another little one down are formed with a lot of water.

In La Lonja some waves, variable according to the flow, are formed. In some periods of time you can infinitely surf, and in other a hole is formed which is enough for ender and cartwheel with little boats. Between the faucet and the old bridge, there are some stones to play with little boats. You can do all kind of splat movements.
