From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Santa Cruz River (Spanish: Río Santa Cruz) is a river from the Argentine province of Santa Cruz.
The Santa Cruz begins at the shore of the Viedma and Argentino Lakes, of glacial origin and located in the Los Glaciares National Park, and runs 385 km eastwards before reaching the Atlantic Coast, creating a delta.
The river has an important flow of 790 m3 on average, and is used not only for irrigation but also for hydroelectricity production.
