Laguna de los Padres is a small lake located about eight miles west of Mar del Plata, Argentina and roughly one mile east of Sierra de los Padres' hills. The name of the lake as well as of the hills nearby has its origins in the Jesuit Fathers (''Padres'') attempting to evangelize the region in the 17th century. The lake has a length of 2,055 mt (6,884 feet) and a width of 1,701 mt (5,670 feet). Its water is shallow and the aquatic flora (algae, rushes and another species like the ''gambarussa'') overpopulates the muddy bottom.〔(''Laguna de los Padres'' ) from ''Todo sobre Pesca'' 〕 Woods of eucalyptus and laurel surround the adjacent area, as well as some aboriginal shrub, like the ''curro''. The place had been open to the public since 1946. Sport fishing is the main recreational activity, and there is a wharf for row boats in a small island linked to land by a causeway. The lake also hosted rowing events during the 1995 Pan American Games and 2006 South American Games. Near the main entrance there is a reconstruction of the ancient Jesuit Mision of ''Nuestra Señora del Pilar'', founded in 1746 and abandoned five years later under pressure from the Leuvuches, a nomadic Tehuelche tribe led by chieftain Cangapol.〔(''Historia de la Laguna de Los Padres'' ) Official website 〕 The lake was known as ''Laguna de las Cabrillas'' (lake of the goats) in the Spanish maps of that time. Close to the shore there is an old farmhouse, now a museum,〔(''Museo tradicionalista "José Hernández"'' ) 〕 where José Hernández, author of the gaucho's national poem ''Martin Fierro'' lived briefly during his childhood.〔 ==See also==
