Description
Description
Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Salto Encantado and Moconá waterfalls during this full-day adventure. This journey leads you through two prominent provincial parks in Misiones, where nature's grandeur unfolds through stunning cascades and lush landscapes.
Salto Encantado & Moconá Day Trip
Your experience begins with a convenient pickup from your accommodations in Posadas, after which we will head towards the Salto Encantado Provincial Park.
Upon arrival, you'll embark on a journey through this remarkable natural site, celebrated as one of the key highlights in Misiones. Here, gaze at the impressive waterfall that gives the park its name, where water plunges dramatically from a height of 210 feet (64 meters). You will also discover smaller nearby waterfalls, including La Olla, Picaflor, Escondido, and Acutí.
Next, we will proceed to the Moconá Provincial Park, a site whose name means "the one that swallows everything" in Guaraní and features a remarkable geological fault.
At this location, experience the breathtaking sight of waterfalls cascading down a height of 82 feet (25 meters) along the Uruguay riverbed, plunging into depths of 377 feet (115 meters). A boat excursion through the Moconá Falls will provide an unforgettable perspective of these natural wonders.
During our time in Moconá Provincial Park, we will also explore the Yabotí Biosphere Reserve, characterized by the confluence of the Yabotí River with other waterways, including the Pepirí Guazú, Uruguay, Serapio, and Calixto Rivers.
Our journey culminates at the Yabotí restaurant, where you may enjoy a meal of local cuisine at your own cost, featuring options like meat, vegetables, or pasta, followed by a dessert.
After enjoying your lunch, we will begin our return to Posadas, ensuring you are back at your hotel by approximately 7 pm.
