This impressive fishing ranch is separated upriver from the world famous Kau Tapan by the Rio Menendez (the only significant spawning tributary of the Rio Grande) and on the downstream side is flanked by the granddaddy of all Tierra del Fuego land holdings, Estancia Jose Menendez.
Despedida Lodge prides itself on access to many of the finest pools on the Rio Grande and its experienced guides are a reason this world-class fly fishing lodge is often the first choice among our hard-core crowd of fly fishermen and many fly fishing industry professionals.

The inviting and spacious log lodge at Despedida accommodates only six anglers at a time and rod space at is extremely limited.
