The Iguaçu National Park, which houses the Iguaçu Falls in western Paraná state, bordering Argentina, continued receiving tourists on October 17, including free access to the viewpoint of the Devil’s Throat waterfall.
The footbridge was closed last week due to the strong water volume in the Iguaçu Falls’ outflow.
The flow recorded on October 13 was 16.5 million liters of water per second, 11 times higher than the average of 1.5 million liters.
With the reduced flow, the footbridge was reopened on October 15.
“The flow of the Natural World Heritage site remains high, registering 4.8 million liters per second. The largest set of waterfalls on the planet is stunning and ready to receive visitors,” said the park administration.
Besides the footbridge that gives access to the viewpoint, all attractions are open to the public.
Among them the Macuco Safari – boat and jungle ride, the Porto Canoas restaurant, and the helicopter overflight with Helisul.
To visit the Iguaçu National Park, buying a ticket through the official website is necessary, as choosing the day and time for the tour. Tickets are limited.
