Proposal

The Humid Chaco in its full dimension

The Monte Lindo stream is a natural beauty that crosses the province from west to east, forming thousands of curves and counter-curves carved by its waters, varying according to flood cycles. Gallery forests, scrubland and palm groves embrace the stream, sheltering countless wild birds and other free, native animals, offering an unforgettable experience for those who dare to paddle its waters. Magical corners of shade and eternal silence, and tangled roots that form mazes for kayaks and canoes, will be the challenges we navigate to experience an ideal climate for adventure.

Itinerary

Day 1: Meeting at the bus terminal in the city of Formosa and transfer to the Monte Lindo stream on Route 2, in the Pastoril area. After a welcome and technical briefing we head into the waters of the magical Monte Lindo, paddling through waters embraced by gallery forests and palm groves, with a break on the shore for lunch, and continuing to our first stop, a spot called “Tres Bocas,” where the Tatú Piré stream and the Monte Lindo meet, forming scenery seen only by adventurers, an excellent spot for shore fishing.

We set up camp, with the option of fishing from the boat or the shore, a campfire to share stories, a starry sky, and overnight in tents.

Day 2: Countryside breakfast, breaking camp, and we continue paddling along the winding Monte Lindo until midday, when we rest on the shore to share lunch. We continue the adventure until mid-afternoon to make our second camp stop; once again the option to fish from the boat or the shore is available to enjoy. Guitar sing-alongs and the evening campfire will be the backdrop of an adventure in the province of Formosa. Overnight.

Day 3: Riverside breakfast and canoeing to the bridge over Route 11, where our trek ends at approximately midday. Transfer to the city of Formosa. End of our services. Ask us about staying at the same hostel to return the next day to your place of residence.

Fui a Tres Picos con Mati y Fer de AEX. Todo sucedió como estaba organizado. Tanto los guías como Euge estuvieron disponibles desde el día 1 de la reserva para evacuar todas nuestras dudas y llegar de la mejor manera al trekking. Súper recomendable viajar con AEX.
