Back in 1934 Argentine National Park was created and covers over 49,021 hectares, offering nature at its best. Since one can get within a few steps of the thundering cascades you must be very careful. You should use the catwalks along the falls to see the beauty of its vegetation, butterflies and wild birds. You must use waterproof clothing as it is extreemly wet near Iguazú falls.

The Iguazú Falls on the border with Brazil are one of the world's natural wonders. Surrounded by thick forests, the Iguazú river flows into hundreds of beautiful waterfalls, falling more than 68 meters with a deafening noise. A monsterous volume of water reaches the bottom, spray rises, and pretty rainbows fill the sky.
An incredible variety of fauna and flora completes the perfect setting for the waterfalls within the protection of the Iguazú National Park.
Highlights of the Argentine side of the Iguazu National Park include the Devil's Gorge - known locally as "Garganta del Diablo" - one of the most impressive falls in the park. Standing on the viewing platform it becomes apparent why this narrow gorge is thus named. Hundreds of meters wide, the Iguazu River flows flat and placid until it reaches the precipice of this canyon where the mighty flow plunges over the rim into a deep crevasse. The ferocity of the cascading tumult stuns the ear, and the mind, with the earth appearing to swallow the river.
