Experience the magnificent Moconá Falls during an enriching day excursion in the Argentine province of Misiones. Witness the cascading waters as they surge over a geological fault, offering a truly unique spectacle.

Moconá Falls Day Trip

We'll commence our journey from your accommodations in Puerto Iguazú at the appointed time, heading towards the renowned Moconá Provincial Park. This natural reserve, celebrated for its stunning waterfalls, ranks as the second-most frequented park in Misiones following the Iguazú National Park.

Our first destination will be the Moconá Falls, located on the Uruguay River, which marks the border between Argentina and Brazil. The unique feature of these falls is that they cascade over a geological fault, the only one of its kind globally, creating a longitudinal split in the river.

These impressive waterfalls, rising between 16 (5 meters) and 33 feet (10 meters), never fail to astonish visitors. They span nearly 2 miles (3 kilometers) within a natural habitat that forms part of the Yabotí Biosphere Reserve. Additionally, this area is encompassed within the larger Paraná rainforest, which extends across Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay.

Throughout our visit, you will have the opportunity to explore the Moconá Visitor Centre to uncover the history behind these famous falls. Furthermore, you'll enjoy approximately 2 hours of leisure time to dine at the onsite restaurant.

In the evening, we will make our way back to your hotel in Puerto Iguazú, ensuring you arrive by 8 pm.

If you wish, you can opt for the additional boat trip along the Moconá Falls. This 20-minute experience allows you to navigate close to the waterfalls, immersing yourself in the raw power of the torrents.
