More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive with the spray in the distance — a low thunder that grows into a persistent roar — and step into a corridor of mist on the Brazilian side of Iguaçu. Walkways thread the forest toward viewing platforms that shove the falls into the foreground: wide curtains, churning pits and a constant plume that pushes sunlight into rainbows.
