Lagunas de Guanacache, Desaguadero y del Bebedero, Interconnected lagoon system in central-western Argentina.
The lagoon system spans 962,370 hectares across three provinces: Mendoza, San Juan, and San Luis, containing freshwater lakes and marshes.
The wetland area received Ramsar site designation in 1999 with 580,000 hectares, expanding to its current size in 2007.
The Huarpe people inhabited these lagoons since the 6th century, with their descendants known as 'laguneros' maintaining traditional practices.
The wetlands receive water from the Mendoza and San Juan Rivers, forming a drainage system that flows into the Desaguadero River.
The site hosts over 50 waterbird species and supports approximately 2,000 residents who depend on the lagoon resources.
