About Parque Nacional Pre Delta

 

Parque Nacional Pre Delta was established in 1992 to protect the unique ecosystem found in the lower Paraná River Delta region of northeastern Argentina. Encompassing a diverse landscape of marshes, wetlands, floodplains, and river channels, the park serves as a vital habitat for many species of birds, fish, and aquatic plants. It is located near the city of Diamante in Entre Ríos province and covers a transitional zone before the full Paraná Delta begins. The park’s mosaic of islands, swamps, and slow-flowing waters creates an ideal environment for wildlife, including capybaras, caimans, otters, and over 300 bird species such as herons, ibises, and kingfishers. The wetland area is one of the most important for bird conservation in Argentina and a key site on migratory routes. Visitors to Parque Nacional Pre Delta can enjoy guided boat tours along the waterways, hiking on boardwalk trails designed to minimize impact, and birdwatching platforms offering exceptional viewing opportunities. The park is also a research and education site focusing on environmental preservation and sustainable tourism. Its proximity to the Paraná River and the Delta itself makes it an outstanding location for fishing and kayaking. The park’s tranquil natural beauty combined with its rich wildlife attracts nature lovers, photographers, and outdoor enthusiasts while contributing to the protection of one of the most ecologically significant delta systems in South America.
