About Iguazu Falls
Iguazu Falls is a series of waterfalls along the Iguazu River, forming a giant horseshoe spanning more than 2,700 meters, where about 275 falls plunge over a geological fault, with the tallest reaching about 80 meters.
It’s a breathtaking natural wonder you must visit at least once in your lifetime, whether with family, a partner, or on a solo adventure.
It’s easy to get there from anywhere in the world and can be visited year-round.
As mentioned earlier, Iguazu Falls are shared by two countries, located along the Iguazu River, which serves as a natural border between Argentina and Brazil, with Argentina having the majority of the falls.
Each country established a national park to preserve the flora and fauna of the surrounding rainforest, and to visit this natural wonder you must do so through these parks.
