Day 1 Iguazu National Park Argentina Trail

Don’t miss it to visit the Argentine side of the Falls!! The Brazilian side is beautiful, you have a panoramic view, but on the Argentine side, you feel very close and can have a dimension of the greatness of the Falls.
Also, only from the Argentine side, you can make the trail to The Devil’s Throat Canyon.

Another Tipp, especially for the Argentinian side, is to bring some mineral water and snacks.
Our guide stopped at a supermarket before we arrived at the Park, the prices at Parque dos Hermanos are very high! Entrance to the Park for residents of Mercosur: 250 pesos.
For those who want to visit the Park for two days in a row, the second day has a 50% discount.

The Devil’s Throat canyon is 80–90 m wide and 70–80 m deep. Left of this canyon, another part of the river forms 160-200 individual falls. (Wiki)
