Pirá Lodge

Pirá Lodge is located in Argentina’s Iberá wetlands, one of the most rare and fascinating wetlands in the world. The area covers some 1.3 million hectares – twice the size of the Everglades as a comparison. The incomparable variety of wildlife found in this immense wetland area allows anglers to combine fishing with bird watching.

The freshwater dorado is a hard fighting and acrobatic fish known for its strong runs and relentless jumps. This complex and challenging fish can be found near confluences, on the edges of eddies, riffles, sharp bends in the current, and close to overhanging carpets of water hyacinth. It can be fished for in narrow runs or in skinny water edges and large fish are hooked in a multitude of differing locations. Your guide will help you adjust your tactics accordingly.

The lodge sits right on the edge of a channel providing direct access to the marsh system and to the Corrientes River, which is 15 minutes south of the lodge. Built in a typical Corrientes style, the lodge enjoys a spectacular panoramic view of the vast wetlands.

It accommodates up to ten guests in five large rooms, each with a private entrance, private bath, two double beds and air conditioning. A separate building, attached by covered galleries, accommodates the spacious living room, bar and dining room, each with tall doors which open up to the wide veranda.
