Río Toro Refuge

Patagonian program of Argentine birds

Located at the mouth of the Toro River at the Río de las Vueltas, about 30 km north of El Chaltén, this refuge functions as a biological satellite station: it is the base for all the field activities we carry out in the area: from invasive species control, bird monitoring, river surveys, environmental education and activities of the Integral Course in Conservation. The refuge is part of a collaborative project with Ea. Río Toro and was built in 2020, adding to our work to restore the Río de las Vueltas/Lago del Desierto watershed, and to the efforts of volunteers who, like us, work to conserve and protect these valleys and the species that inhabit them.
