Accessibility
To get the certification of the Architecture without Barriers Program, the Administration of National Parks has removed all
architectural elements blocking the normal flow of children and disabled people, trying to preserve as much of the traditional
designs and buildings as possible.
A person on a wheelchair can go through all the facilities, tours and services without any inconvenience from the
moment of arrival to the Park to the moment of exit.
Buildings.
• Paved paths in the Cataratas Area were built to make the flow of wheelchair users and blind people safe.
• Every building in the conceded area, footbridges and places with unleveled surfaces have access ramps. Building have even
surfaces, with the same texture, both in rooms and restrooms: granite polished with lead indoors, brushed concrete outdoors, and
metal grating footbridges.
• There are restrooms in every sector of the Park, at the Access, at the train stations, at La Selva Restaurant and the food court.
Doors width allows wheelchair users go in and out.
• Restroom space allows entering and turning wheelchairs, and there are bars at each sides. Washbasins are adequately set for
wheelchair users to wash their hands easily. There are urinals adequately set for people of low heights.
Circuits.
• All footbridges in the Park have railings fitted with double wood handrails for children and wheelchair users’ safety. Edge
protector profiles have been fitted in the lower part of the footbridges and at both sides, a metal profile to protect wheelchairs and
baby buggies. Wire nets were also set for children’s safety.
• All one way footbridges are 120 centimeters wide, and two way footbridges are 180 centimeters wide. There are no slopes over
6%.
• The entrance to the Devil’s Throat and its entire footbridge are 100% accessible.
• The entrance to the Upper Circuit and its walk are also 100% accessible.
• The entrance to the Lower Circuit is possible for wheelchair users and it can be done through ramps and stairs. Wheelchair
users can choose to go on an electric vehicle (caddy carts) to Dos Hermanas Square and from there on wheelchair through ramps.
This is 90% accessible.
• The Green Trail is accessible and presents no obstacles, just slight slopes. It has optimal flow conditions due to its road and
sides free of obstacles. Halfway through the walk, there is a small bridge, fitted with the same materials as the footbridges. At the
end of the tour, there is a small barrier signaling the Rainforest Ecological Train crossing. Some meters ahead, visitors can access
the Cataratas Train Station platform through a concrete ramp.
Transport.
• The Rainforest Ecological Train, which runs on Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), has been specially designed for Iguazú National
Park. Each wagon has places for wheelchairs, where seats can be folded up. It has antislip aluminium floors.
• There are small vehicles that can transport disable people and visitors who may need them. Visitors can find them an the Park
entrance, avoiding the 400 meters walk to Central Train Station, and another at Central Train Station which takes visitors to the
Upper and Lower Circuits entrances.

Bosetti, Adán y Eva, and Bernabé Méndez Waterfalls, ending at Mbiguá Waterfall lookout as a first stop.
It is characterized by having its trails set on top of the waterfalls edge, which allows a vertical view from the top,
something really electrifying. It has places to rest, which makes the tour a source of energy and relax in contact
with water.
After Mbiguá Waterfall lookout, the gangway crosses the Superior Iguazú River to reach the edge of the second
largest fall of this beautiful system: the San Martin Waterfall.

The Rainforest Ecological Train was designed and built for transporting tourists in the Cataratas Area of the Iguazú National
Park.
It runs on liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), which does not pollute the environment and has clean combustion, leaving no solid
waste. It travels at 18 km/h (12 mph) maximum, and has barely no noise impact.
Exclusively designed for the Iguazú National Park by the English company Alan Keef Limited (expert on leisure locomotives,
supplier of other parks in Asia and Europe), it adapts to the climate special characteristics, the surrounding thick vegetation, and
it preserves the area.
It is not fully enclosed so that its 250 passengers can have direct contact with the environment and experience a journey into the
forest, its sounds, scents and wetness.
It starts at Central Train Station, very close to the services and shop areas, and where the access to Macuco Trail is located. From
there, groups depart every 15 or 20 minutes, depending on demand.
Cataratas Train Station is the intermediate stop, where the access to the Upper and Lower Circuits is located and visitors can
board the boat to San Martín Island.
It ends at the Devil’s Throat Train Station, where the 1,100 meters long (1,203 yards) footbridge begins and leads across the Upper
Iguazú River to the lookout from which this wonderfull waterfall can be seen.

The third and last parts of the Circuit, which lead back to Dos Hermanas Square, have stairs and go through the Lower Iguazú
shore where Alvar Núñez, Elenita, and Lanusse steep waterfalls can be enjoyed.

• Length: 7,000 meters there and back (7,655 yards)
• Accessibility: wild path, without transports.
• Difficulty: low in the first 3,200 meters (3,499 yards), high in the following 200 meters (218 yards), and medium in
the final 100 meters (109 yards).
• Final destination: Arrechea Stream waterfall and pool.
• Estimated time of visit: 3 hours
• Restrooms and bar: only at the beginning, at the Rainforest Ecological Train Central Station.
This trail has the name of a bird of the South American partridge family, a brown bird bigger than a chicken.
The access to the Macuco Trail is allowed from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and it should be completed during daylight.
The thickness of the surrounding environment makes it hard to see the fauna, which is why all the senses must be sharpened.
Visitor should walk carefully and look for animal tracks and watch the colorful variety of insects.
Luckily, caí monkeys can be spotted as this is their natural habitat. They live on trees, are restless and very curious. They move in
groups of no more than 20 individuals. They eat fruits, and the forest has everything they need. It is advised that visitors should
not approach them or feed them, and simple watch their natural behavior without interfering.
Along this path, there are six interpretation stations that help visitors understand some of all the area rich biodiversity.
The Macuco Trail ends at the edge of the Iguazú canyon. Thousands of years ago, the Falls were located at this point, and
gradually moved backwards to their current location. Nowadays, their old location has been taken up by many streams that flow
into the Iguazú River, such as the Arrechea Stream, which has an amazing, paradisaical 20 meters high (65.62 ft) cascade before
the end.
Devil’s Throat
The tour to reach the lookout balcony of the majestic Devil’s Throat allows visitors to approach a few meters from the most
important and mighty waterfall of the Iguazu Falls, whose image has traveled all around the world, similar to a giant funnel that
swallows the planet.
The itinerary begins about 1,100 meters before the monumental fall, after getting off the Ecological Jungle Train at Devil’s Throat
Station, which was designed with the purpose of generating the least possible environmental impact.
There, you can begin enjoying the environment that the Iguazu River and its small islands offer, actually a refuge of countless and
picturesque deep blue jays.
The gangway leading to the balcony that faces the waterfall is just over a kilometer in length, is safe and quiet, either on
wheelchair or by walking, due to the absence of obstacles and its absolutely flat character.
The end of the tour, at the balcony, gives us a magical and unique moment, staring at a huge wall of water over 80 meters high,
located on the border of Argentina and the sister Republic of Brazil.
The folding system of gangways was designed to preserve them from being damaged due to an important increase in the flow of
Iguazu River.
In normal circumstances, when the river is low, the railings are raised and the gangways allow the people get to the Balcony of the
Devil’s Throat.
When the river increases its flow, railings are fold to allow the flow to pass through, by reducing the resistance, and thereby also
enabling to pass a trunk floating above.
And if the river level is very high, the flow velocity increases, and that is the moment when the gangways detach themselves, to
avoid compromising the concrete structure. Once the flow is down again, all the structure is reset.
When this process eventually occurs, access is not enabled for people, but the Iguazu National Park never closes its doors, and
those who are visiting us, can come to enjoy the splendor that acquire the rest of the falls when the river rises, due to an unusual
majesty that can only be appreciated in opportunities like these.
This system of gangways and security, proposed and approved by the National Parks Administration was possible because of the
replacement of all the old wood gangways by these current ones, characterized by an ecological architectural development, and
specially designed for for structural piles safeguard, preventing the circuit being closed long periods of time, as occured decades
before.
БРАЗИЛИЯ ВОДОПАДЫ
Открыт ежедневно с 9 до 17ч
На осмотр водопадов уходит как минимум 5 часов, гид привез нас к парку, мы договорились к какому времени он подъедет и пошли
любоваться прекрасами. Стоимость входа около 20 долларов, оплата по карте, с билетом выдается карта. Туда я Вам рекомендую ехать на
поезде (обратно можно пройти пешком короткой дорогой).
Обратно от Глотки Дъявола сплавляйтесь на рафте, это абсолютно безопасно, в т.ч. и с детьми, получите огромное удовольствие. Сплав стоит
около 10 долларов. Одевайте удобную обувь, т.к. в этот день вам предстоит пройти немало километров, перемещаясь по узеньким мостикам от
от одного водопада к другому. На всей территории парка много кафешек и туалетов.

Парк Птиц в Фос-Ду-Игуасу находится недалеко от Национального парка Игуасу и занимает территорию в 17 гектаров. Чтобы попасть сюда,
нужно преодолеть километр асфальтированной дороги, проходящей через лес.
Вход - буквально через пару сотен метров от выхода из Национального парка Игуасу.
Парк птиц и парк Водопады Игуасу находятся рядом, и их удобно смотреть в один день (2-2,5 часа парк птиц и 3 часа водопады)
оплата по карте (В ДРУГИХ ОТЗЫВАХ: Заплатили за билеты наличными, карточки здесь к оплате не принимают), персонал говорит по-
английски, вместе с билетом вы получаете карту парка и самостоятельно гуляете и любуетесь этими неземными существами. Парк птиц это
нечто, особенно трогательны и интересны любопытные и бесстрашные туканы, к ним можно приблизится вплотную, но трогать птиц не
разрешается. Клетка с попугаями напоминает сюжет из фильма Хичкока "Птицы", попугаи орут, так что вы не слышите сами себя, пикируют
на вас, короче получите море впечатлений )))
Этот день мы закончили наивкуснейшим ужинов в шураскарии Гаучо (Churrascaria do Gaucho, Rua Taroba 632) это в 100 метрах от Терминала.
Это был пир желудка, столько вкуснейшего, свежего, сочного мяса, закусок и десертов (десерты полный восторг, я забыла о фигуре напрочь) и
все за 25 реалов, напитки оплачиваются отдельно. Берите все маленькими порциями, т.к. там столько всего нужно перепробовать! Смысл
шураскарий в том, что Вы платите фиксированную сумму и едите столько сколько влезет
ДРУГОЙ ОТЗЫВ: перейдя дорогу, обедаем в Green restaurante Foz do Iguaçu, работающему по принципу шведского стола.
ПАРАГВАЙ
3-й день нашего пребывания мы начали с поездки в Парагвай на местный рынок, честно говоря это была потеря
времени и не безопасно. Местный рынок это обычный торговый центр Мона Лиза, где все тоже самое, что и везде,
на некоторые товары цена возможно чуть ниже, но не существенно. Сам Парагвай - общественный туалет, запахи
на центральной улице, грязь, сомнительные личности, моя бразильская подружка наотрез отказалась свернуть с
главной улице, еле-еле прошла 100 метров по ней и то ради меня и мы сели в автобус и поехали обратно. В
Парагвай ходит рейсовый автобус, на который можно сесть все на той же улице Av. Juscelino Kubitschek (JK),
граница открыта. Все тем же маршрутом мы добрались до парка
водопадов http://www.cataratasdoiguacu.com.br (время в пути от Терминала 40-50 мин.) Бразильская стороны
существенно меньше, практически все водопады на аргентинской стороне
