Río Negro

A river that is quite important to Uruguay, Rio Negro is the largest blackwater river in the world. As such, populations from both Uruguay and Argentina are dependent on its waters, as it allows for the production of apples and pears. You’ll find a thriving fishing industry here, so if you’re looking for fishing trips, you’re in the right place. Among the attractions near the Rio Negro includes Fray Bentos, a factory that recently earned its status as a UNESCO World Heritage site. There’s also Las Cañas, a stretch of lush sands that makes for a pretty location for lazy days and picnics. Visit Guichon, and you’ll find a hot spring, a pool, and a river to explore. Due to its location by bodies of water, those visiting Rio Negra can expect an aquatic adventure.
