(Translated by Google) Spectacular, very nice place to visit. (Original) Espectacular muy lindo lugar para visitar.
(Translated by Google) I loved it nice place (Original) Me encantó lugar agradable
(Translated by Google) I loved the place to go for a walk and hike. Be careful because Google gives you a location that is in the middle of a humble neighborhood, on the literal other end. You can walk to the end of the Costanera. (Original) Me encantó el lugar para ir de paseo y caminata. Ojo por que Google te tira ubicacion q es en Medio de un barrio humilde, en la otra punta literal . Se llega caminando al final de la Costanera.

Know before you go

  • Be cautious with Google Maps directions as they might lead you to an incorrect location within a humble neighborhood; aim for Costanera instead
  • Try to visit when the gates of Embalse de Río Hondo are open for an enhanced experience
  • Respect the environment by not leaving any garbage behind on the shores of the reservoir
  • Visit Ciudad Del Sol Termas de Rio Hondo nearby to enjoy natural sights like Reserva Natural Tara Inti Wildlife Refuge

(Translated by Google) You can enjoy seeing these works of engineering, after touring the waterfront among other things. A very quiet place to spend the day or half a day. (Original) Se puede disfrutar de ver estas obras de ingeniería, después de recorrer la costanera entre otras cosas. Un lugar muy tranquilo para pasar el día o medio día.
