Hiking
What can you say. A totally mind boggling natural wonder. The scale is just immense. One of the most impressive and beautiful things I have seen in my life.

long walk on footbridges through the jungle with many views of the waterfalls.
The Argentine side of Iguazu is rather cozy.

The semicircular waterfall at the heart of this site is some 80 m high and 2,700 m in diameter and is situated on a basaltic line spanning the border between Argentina and Brazil. Made up of many cascades producing vast sprays of water, it is one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world. The surrounding subtropical rainforest has over 2,000 species of vascular plants and is home to the typical wildlife of the region: tapirs, giant anteaters, howler monkeys, ocelots, jaguars and caymans.
