Caplina River

The Caplina River extends across the southern region of Peru, reaching from inland areas toward the Pacific Ocean through diverse terrain.

The Caplina River has functioned as a primary water source for agricultural development in the Tacna Department since early settlements emerged in this area.

Local farmers in the Tacna region maintain traditional irrigation methods along the Caplina River, passing down water management knowledge through generations.

The river experiences significant water reduction due to natural filtration and extraction processes before reaching its final destination at the Pacific Ocean.

Environmental factors cause sections of the Caplina River to dry completely, creating a natural phenomenon that affects the surrounding ecosystem.
