High-End, Authentic Argentine Lodge

Our Story

A Working Ranch Since 1910

Caridad sits on a working sheep ranch about fifty miles south of Esquel: 435,000 acres, established in 1910 when the British imported Merino wool sheep from Australia. The estancia still runs sheep today, and its own frontage holds over 96 miles of private water at the base of the Andes, from freestone rivers to spring creeks, alongside the wider Home Waters region Caridad shares with our other Central Patagonia lodges (see Shared Waters We Fish on our Fly Fishing page).

The Water

Where We Fish

Tecka

Small Stream

A small wade-fishing stream carrying the same name Caridad was long known by. Rainbow and brown trout.

Corcovado

River

Runs over sixty miles before crossing into Chile, where it becomes the legendary Palena. Lower stretches near Corcovado town, in the same corridor as Tecka. Mammoth brown trout, vibrant rainbows.
