Overview

Alto Río Senguer, or Alto Río Senguerr, is a town in Chubut Province, Argentina, located along the northern bank of the Senguerr River. It is the head town of the Río Senguer Department, and was formally founded on September 1, 1943. However, the first permanent dwelling on the site was built around 1915 by a German-born settler, for whom the village used to be named Schultz Pass.
