Estero Covarrubias is a pristine Andean stream located in the Santiago Metropolitan Region of Chile, flowing from snowmelt-fed headwaters in the Andes and offering a remarkable fly fishing experience just a short distance from the capital city. Fed by glacial and snowmelt waters, the stream maintains cold, clear conditions that support healthy populations of both brown trout (trucha fario) and rainbow trout (trucha arcoíris). The combination of urban proximity and genuine wilderness character makes Estero Covarrubias a standout destination in central Chile's growing reputation as a technical and sustainable fly fishing zone.
