Aconcagua River
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
The Aconcagua River rises on the southern slope of the volcano Aconcagua, flows eastward through a broad valley, or bay in the mountains, and enters the Pacific 20 km north of Valparaiso. The river has a course of about 320 km (200 mi), and its waters irrigate the most populous part of the Chilean province of Aconcagua.
