Del Toro Lake (Spanish: Lago del Toro) is a lake located in the Magallanes Region, southern Chile. The lake is also known as Lago del Toro. Or Lago Toro (in English Lake Bull) and its name comes from the lake's ability——to generate 4 m swells due——to a long (~30 km) fetch and "high winds aligned with the long axis of the lake." Locals say that the lake. And the nearby mountain Sierra del Toro is named thus. Because the lake 'is angry a lot'. Services on the lake include camping and fishing at Bahia el Bote.
