Off to La Confluencia

Back in Rio Tranquilo, we still had about 2.5 hours of sunlight left so we decided to drive South upto La Confluencia to see the confluence of the river Baker and river Nef. The confluence is about 80 kms from Puerto Rio Tranquilo so we knew we would make it before sunset.
The route is quite scenic. We passed the Mirador for the Los Leones vista. Its a beautiful view of the snow covered mountain peaks. After that, we continued on the Carretera Austral till just before Aldana where we turned off the Carretera Austral to the right towards Lago Negro. Here, there is a stunning viewpoint of the Lago Negro and the blue colored Lago General Carrera behind.
We reached the confluence at about 8:30 pm just as the sun was setting.Read more
