IGUAZU FALLS Imposing and majestic, in the midst of the wild landscape of untamed subtropical vegetation within Iguazu National Park, the traveler can discover an incomparably marvelous natural spectacle that has been declared a World Natural Heritage Site: the Iguazu Falls. Located17 kilometers to the south-east of Puerto Iguazu, and 22 kilometers from the point where the River Iguazu flows into the River Parana, the Falls were discovered by Alvar Nuñez Cabeza de Vaca in the year 1541, and he gave them the name Santa Maria Falls, as a homage to the Virgin Mary, protecting his expedition.They are in the area bounded by the cities of Puerto Iguazu (Argentina), Foz do Iguaçu (Brazil) and Ciudad del Este (Paraguay), which has been given the name of The Iguazu International Tourism Zone by a Special Tourist Meeting of the MERCOSUR. The River Iguazu has its source in the State of Parana in Brazil and, as it approaches its confluence with the River Parana, there is a multiplicity of rocks, islets and elongated islands that split it up into numerous branches. When these reach the gorge, each of them turns into a waterfall, and together they make up the huge "fan of the Falls", on the border between Brazil and Argentina. However, the river encounters its greatest "obstacle" shortly before meeting the Parana, right on the Argentine-Brazilian borderline. As it falls over the final edge of the plateau, the thundering roar of the mighty river has been likened by one observer to "the sound of the ocean emptying into an abyss". The noise is so great that it can be heard kilometers away. In a chain along the cliff-edge, forming a crescent almost three kilometers long, a series of 270 cascades and individual falls separated by rocky islets enable the river level to drop to that of the plateau. This is a 50 to 80 meter free-fall, occasionally broken by outcrops or rocks. The falls, which are memorable in themselves, become even more remarkable in their beautiful forest surroundings.

It is famous for skiing but also great for sight-seeing, water sports, trekking and climbing. Cerro Catedral is one of the most important ski centers in South America. The name Bariloche comes from the Mapuche word Vuriloche meaning "people from behind the mountain" (furi = behind, che = people). The Vuriloche pass was used by the Mapuches to cross the Andes and was kept secret from the European priests for a long time. TOURISM: Tourism, both national and international, is the main economical activity of Bariloche, all year around. The main ski station is the one at Cerro Catedral.

Lake Nahuel Huapi averages 14 °C in the summertime). The fishing season is another great attraction. Bariloche is the biggest city of a huge Lakes District, and serves as a base for many excursions in the region. Trekking in the mountains, almost completely wild and uninhabited with the exception of a few high-mountain huts, is also a popular activity. The city is also famous for its chocolates. The city has a modern airport equipped to receive any kind of aircraft. Several of the most important airlines of Argentina maintain regular flights to Bariloche, as well as some international lines from neighboring countries, especially during the ski season.
