Bobos River (Mexico)
The Bobos River, also known as the Filobobos or Filo-Bobos River, is a river of Veracruz state of eastern Mexico.
The Bobos River is a tributary of the Nautla. It originates on the northern slope of Cofre [de Perote] volcano, and flows northwards through a canyon before joining the Nautla, which then empties eastwards into the Gulf of Mexico. The Bobos River canyon separates the Sierra de Chiconquiaco on the east from the Sierra [Madre Oriental] and Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt on the west.
A protected area, known as Río Filo-Bobos y su Entorno, protects the lower stretch of the Bobos and a portion of the Nautla River valley near the confluence. The protected area was designated in 1992, and covers an area of 105.28 km2.
The river is a popular whitewater rafting location.
