Iguazu Falls

Introduction

One of the world\'s largest waterfalls, the Iguazu Falls extend over 2700m in a horseshoe shape on the Iguazu River on the border between the Argentine Province of Misiones and the Brazilian state of Paraná.  The surrounding National Parks are home to hundreds of rare and endangered species of flora and fauna.  There are 275 cascades and visitors can walk around the catwalk trails.  There are two basic circuits -  an upper path and a lower path.  The lower path leads to the base of the falls, where you may wish to take in a boat ride.  From the upper path you have panoramic views for a truly unforgettable experience.
