IGUAZU FALLS

Dyears the natural reserve of 18.000 hectares which overlaps the borders, in a wet forest, dense and difficult of access, is located one of the natural curiosities most outstanding of South America, the falls of Iguazu. The Argentinian ones and the Brazilian ones dispute the privilege from the best points of view on the falls.
To have an overall vision of these falls, it is necessary to go on the two sides of the border.
Argentinian side one approaches some by paths and footbridges which respect the forest. The cataracts of Iguazu are formed by an abrupt disalignment of the course of the river, which falls à.pic from high basaltic cliffs from 60 to 70 m on a development of four kilometers.
The flow of the falls of the Niagara east, certainly, more imposing (although water falls only 56 m there in height), but the natural framework of the falls of Iguazu, this wild vegetation preserved so well, gives to those a picturesque higher good.
