The El Encuentro Experience stands out in Patagonia. It’s not just another fishing trip but a deeply personal invitation to explore more than half of the province of Chubut through El Encuentro Lodge and Brook Trout Base Camp.
From spring creeks to freestone rivers, from remote lakes to hidden streams, the variety of waters and landscapes will challenge and inspire every angler—no matter the skill level. Best of all, each itinerary is 100% customised and designed around your fishing style and goals.

Thanks to long-standing relationships with local landowners, the guides here are able to open the doors to exclusive waters.
Whilst on the subject of guides, the team here are not only experienced professionals, they’re deeply passionate and knowledgeable about the region, are technical experts, and exude a warm, patient nature. They grew up fishing these waters and know every bend, hatch, and hidden gem. Whether you’re casting dries in the spring, exploring cool rivers in the summer, or chasing browns in the golden light of fall, there’s magic in every season—and they are fully equipped to help you find it.

Away from the fishing, the lodge staff take great pride pride in the warm hospitality where every breakfast, streamside lunch, and dinner is prepared with love, featuring local ingredients and Patagonian flavours. And if you’re travelling with family or non-fishing friends, there are plenty of adventures for them too.
