The Pascua River is a river located in the Aysén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo Region of Chile. In spite of being a short river, its drainage basin is the seventh-largest in the country due to the great size of the O'Higgins/San Martín Lake, its source. After 62 km, the Pascua River ends in a wide delta that empties into the Baker Channel, previously having rushed in a last area of rapids.

  • El Río Pascua es una corriente de agua ubicada en la provincia Capitán Prat, Región de Aysén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo, Chile. A pesar de ser un río de corto tamaño, su hoya hidrográfica es la séptima de mayor importancia en el país debido al gran tamaño del lago O'Higgins/San Martín, donde se origina. Limita al norte con la cuenca del río Bravo (Mitchell), al oriente con el Río Chico (Santa Cruz), al sur y al oeste con el campo de hielo patagónico sur. (es)
  • Río Pascua är ett vattendrag i Chile. Det ligger i regionen Región de Aisén, i den södra delen av landet, 1 700 km söder om huvudstaden Santiago de Chile. Vattendragets källa är Lago O'Higgins och det mynnar ut i Bakersfjorden i Stilla havet. I omgivningen kring Río Pascua växer i huvudsak blandskog och området är nästan obefolkat, med mindre än två invånare per kvadratkilometer. (sv)

  • Le río Pascua, est un fleuve chilien situé dans la province de Capitán Prat de la région Aisén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo. Il constitue l'émissaire du lac O'Higgins qu'il relie à l'océan Pacifique. Malgré sa faible longueur, son bassin versant de 14 760 kilomètres carrés est le septième plus grand du Chili, étant donné surtout l'importance du bassin de drainage du grand lac dont il est l'émissaire. Par son débit estimé à 700 m3/s, il est le troisième fleuve du Chili. (fr)

Par son débit estimé à 700 m3/s, il est le troisième fleuve du Chili. Le fleuve est d'un accès difficile et encore presque inconnu, à l'inverse d'autres grands cours d'eau du sud chilien, tels le río Palena ou le río Baker. Cependant, son potentiel hydraulique estimé à 1.830 MW est le plus élevé du Chili. (fr)
  • The Pascua River is a river located in the Aysén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo Region of Chile. In spite of being a short river, its drainage basin is the seventh-largest in the country due to the great size of the O'Higgins/San Martín Lake, its source. The Pascua River was discovered in 1898 by the German Hans Steffen, during the exploration of the area near Christmas time (Pascua means Easter but is frequently used to describe Christmas in Chilean Spanish, thus explaining the origin of its name). The river has its source in the northern part of the north-west arm of the lake O'Higgins in the form of a small stream, in an area surrounded by steep-sided mountains that reach over 1,000 meters with glaciers spilling down to the lake or to the river. The river flows quickly forming rapids until it creates a cascade in the place where it falls into the Chico Lake. After leaving this lake, the river forms a new cascade and rushes furiously, preventing any type of navigation on its waters. Then the river is joined by the "Quiroz River" from the left, whose origin is the glacier of the same name, increasing its width in a valley of about 10 kilometers wide, which allows the development of large meanders and some marshy and peaty zones. After 62 km, the Pascua River ends in a wide delta that empties into the Baker Channel, previously having rushed in a last area of rapids. Due to its hydrographic conditions, the Pascua River has a hydroelectric potential of great importance. There exists a controversial Endesa project to construct two massive power dams on the course of the river, but the proposal has generated immediate opposition from a great part of the population and in the government authorities, due to the serious ecological damage that would cause in the zone.
