Overview
- South America’s Cataratas del Iguazo is also known as Iguazo Falls. Part of the Rio Iguazo, the falls straddle the border between Argentina and Brazil. This 8,800-foot wide waterfall drops rough 269 feet. Most of the river fall down into an area known as Garganta del Diablo, or The Devil’s Throat, but the rest spreads out over a wide, flat shelf, splitting into hundreds of individual falls.
- This waterfall can vary greatly in volume, depending on how much rain has fallen. At times it shrinks down to a fraction of its usual size, but at other times it will spread to up to 9,500 feet wide.
