The Gallegos River (Spanish : Río Gallegos ) is a river in the Argentine province of Santa Cruz , on whose estuary lies Río Gallegos city, capital of the province. Given that its basin reaches only the fringes of the Andes mountains it classifies as a sub-Andean river.[2]
The is contradicting information on where river is actually formed.[1] According to one source it forms at the confluence of the rivers Rubens and Penitente .[1] Yet according to another source Rubens River is just a tributary of Penitente River and Gallegos River originates further downstream at the confluence of the rivers Penitentes and Turbio.[1] After traveling 180 kilometres (112 mi )[citation needed ] Gallegos River reaches the Atlantic Coast.
On its way east, after crossing a 200-kilometre (120 mi ) wide glaciated canyon, it meets the tributaries Turbio, Cóndor, and Zurdo. In spite of this, the river's stream can be drastically reduced during the dry season .
The river, named after Blasco Gallegos , one of the pilots of Ferdinand Magellan 's expedition of 1520, is popular for fly fishing for brown trout , principally by tourists.
Part of the drainage basin of the river lies in Chile's Magallanes Region .[2]
