Cruz de Santa Ana & San Ignacio Ruins Day Trip

On this trip from Posadas, we'll discover two icons of the province of Misiones: the Cruz de Santa Ana and the Jesuit ruins of San Ignacio Miní. We'll also visit the famous Salto Encantado waterfall.

Day Trip Details

At the indicated time, you'll be picked up from your hotel in Posadas for a tour of Misiones, the most northeastern province of Argentina.

The first stop will be at the Salto Encantado Provincial Park. In this protected area of Misiones, we'll see the impressive waterfall of Salto Encantado, which reaches a height of 64 metres (209 feet). During our visit to the park, we'll also see other waterfalls, such as the Salto la Olla and the Picaflor waterfall.

After visiting the provincial park, we'll go to the town of San Ignacio where you'll have time for lunch. After lunch, we'll take a guided tour of the Jesuit ruins of San Ignacio Miní, founded in 1611.

From there, we'll continue to the Parque Temático de la Cruz theme park, where we'll see the iconic Cruz de Santa Ana, found 360 metres (1181 feet) above sea level. This 52-metre (170-feet) metallic crucifix is remarkable. Whoever wishes can go up to the viewpoint for incredible views of the Paraná River.

Finally, we'll return to your hotel in Posadas, where we're scheduled to arrive 12 hours after pickup.
