San Javier River (Santa Fe)
- San Javier River (Santa Fe)
The San Javier River is a river in the province of Santa Fe, Argentina. It is born as an arm of the Paraná River opposite Goya, Corrientes, east of the city of Reconquista, and flows south-southwest parallel to the Paraná, along the wide flood plain of its basin. It passes by San Javier and Helvecia, and ends near Santa Fe City, the provincial capital.
The San Javier, formerly known as Quiloazas River, was the cause of the abandonment of the initial site of the provincial capital at Cayastá, 85 km upstream from the current one, due to the erosion it caused (and still causes) on the ravine where the town was built.
