Over a width of 2.7 km, more than 270 waterfalls plunge down. The falls are located on both the Brazilian and Argentinian sides. Only a small part of the falls is on Brazilian territory, but because the water flows towards Brazil, you have the best views here.

Depending on the water level, you can admire up to 275 waterfalls here. On average, around 5 million liters of water flow down every second. You can walk a little around and always have a different panorama from different perspectives. A very nice place that is worth a trip to

The Iguazú Falls consist of 20 larger and 255 smaller waterfalls over an area of 2.7 kilometers. Some are up to 82 meters high, the majority are 64 meters high. The amount of water at the falls varies from 1500m³/s to 10500m³/s. The border between Argentina and Brazil runs lengthways through the waterfalls. Since most of the falls are in Argentina, the larger panoramic view is possible from the Brazilian side. The falls are separated from each other by several larger and smaller islands. Of the 2700 meter extension, no water flows for around 900 meters. The main waterfall (or the main waterfall system) is colloquially called Garganta del Diablo (Spanish) or Garganta do Diabo (Portuguese) or "Devil's Throat" and is a U-shaped, 150 meter wide and 700 meter long gorge. There is a walkway about 600 meters long to the lower end on the Brazilian side, and a footbridge about a thousand meters long leads from the Argentine side to the upper end. However, when the water level is high, visibility is limited due to the formation of spray.
