Iryapú Nature Reserve Nighttime Hike

What is the habitat of Puerto Iguazú's nocturnal animals like? We'll discover this during our nighttime hiking tour around Iryapú Jungle Reserve.

Description

At the scheduled time, we'll meet at Jangadero, 136 and proceed to the Iryapú Natural Reserve in the Paranaense rainforest. This reserve spans 600 hectares (1,482 acres).

We will begin our nighttime hike through this natural space, observing the customs and traditions of the indigenous Mbya-Guaraní peoples. The hike, which is of lower difficulty, covers a total distance of 4 km (2.48 miles), featuring huge trees such as rosewoods, guatambus, and cedars, along with strangler fig trees and various species of palm trees, ferns, orchids, and fruit trees.

During the tour, we will encounter species such as coatis, weasels, cai monkeys, southern tamanduas, short-tailed opossums, and snakes. With careful observation, we may also spot frogs, spiders, and a broad range of insects. We will collect any litter using a special bag to preserve their habitat.

After completing the hike, we will return to the meeting point in Puerto Iguazú, where we will finish the tour within 2 hours.
