11/04/2023 to 12/04/2023 - Iguazu Falls & Puerto Iguazu / Argentina

E hatisitsoe: 18.04.2023

We traveled briefly from Brazil to Argentina today because we wanted to experience the waterfall from the other side. The entry and exit were uncomplicated. To recharge, we had a coffee and then went directly to the national park. On the Argentinean side, there are more circular paths and a train that shuttles between three stations in the national park. We took the train to the last station and walked for about 15 minutes. And then we stood above the Devil's Throat, the main waterfall. Yesterday we viewed it from below, today the water torrents fell directly beneath us into the depths. The air was filled with the roar of the water and the wind blew the spray in our face. Madness, the forces that reign here. After extensive observations, we made our way back on foot and by train. Now we set out to hike the Macuco Trail, a path that runs through the jungle. We saw monkeys, giant ants, a capybara, lizards, a toucan, and countless different butterflies. 800 different butterfly species live here in the rainforest. At the end of the trail, we found the hidden Arrechea waterfall. After a short break, we walked back, were on our way for about 3 hours, and experienced pure nature on 8 kilometers. Since we hadn't visited everything in the Argentinean national park yet, we wanted to come back tomorrow. So it was time to check into our accommodation and find something suitable for dinner. We walked through the small town of Puerto Iguazu. It has a few souvenir shops to offer, otherwise it is just as uninteresting as its Brazilian counterpart. For dinner, we had fresh homemade pasta in a very small restaurant, very delicious.

The next day we started early in the morning because we wanted to be the first ones in the national park and have the waterfalls to ourselves. At 8 o'clock sharp, we walked briskly to the upper circular path. We were actually alone on the way and had all viewpoints to ourselves. Then we went on the lower circular path. We could enjoy great views of various waterfalls from different perspectives. In the afternoon, we took the train again to the viewpoint on the Devil's Throat. Today the wind was blowing from a different direction, we didn't get quite as wet and could see even more water falling over the cliff. We slowly made our way back and crossed the border again, back to Brazil.

We had the opportunity to observe a unique place and an overwhelming natural spectacle for 3 days.
