Potrerillos Dam Kayak Tour

  • 4 reviews | 64 travellers
    The activity could have been excellent if I had received information about preparing for the activity (what to bring, such as bathing suits). Because the place had a great structure, however, I didn't know it would be possible to take a shower, take clothes to change, eat, etc.

Activity Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the entrance to Potrerillos Adventure Park, next to the Mendoza River, where we'll begin an exciting kayak tour of the Potrerillos Dam.

Upon arrival, the instructor will give a brief safety orientation. Then, we'll get ready with all the necessary equipment and start a kayak tour through the Potrerillos Dam, one of the main reservoirs in the Argentine province of Mendoza.

Throughout the trip, which will be of moderate difficulty and last 1.5 hours, we'll navigate along the Mendoza River, which supplies water to the reservoir. Of course, along the way, we'll also enjoy beautiful views of the Andean foothills.

We'll conclude the tour at the starting point, where we'll say our goodbyes after a total of 2 hours.

Important: Please note that if the reservoir is at a high capacity, we'll begin the journey at the meeting point. Otherwise, we'll travel by road to the Perilago area to do the kayak tour of Potrerillos there.
