The Iguazu Falls National Park preserves the greatest biodiversity of the ecoregion of the Parana jungle.
Natural World Heritage since 1984 and one of the 7 Natural World Wonder since 2011, the Iguazu Falls National Park is a unique natural universe. Full of life, abundant vegetation and more than 250 waterfalls, among them the Devil's Throat, falling more than 82 meters high; it is the ideal place to connect with nature.
Through walkways, adapted to wheelchairs and baby strollers, you can enjoy the jumps and the jungle, up close. Because experiencing nature in the Park is easily reached by all visitors.
The Ecological Train crosses the jungle until it reaches the entrance of the main walks, generating minimal environmental impact.
A new history in the Cataratas area of the Iguazu Falls National Park began in 2001, when the works of the entire new infrastructure were completed, seeking to protect the environment and the fragile area around the falls.
To implement the project of the Administration of National Parks supervised by the International Union of Conservation of Nature in a previously degraded area meant to reforest only with native species.
In addition, to preserve nature and its resources, an innovative wastewater treatment system was devised through a system of vegetated cells that transform waste in an ecological way.
In the Park there are 418 different species of birds (the sight of the swifts crossing the Devil´s Throat is unforgettable), which coexist with animals such as the jaguar, fish, turtles and monkeys. Specimens of natural flora such as rosewood and hearts of palm compete into decorating the environment.
