Holiday Destination: Iguazu Falls

Iguazu Falls is located where the Iguazu River tumbles over the edge of the Paraná Plateau, 23 kilometres (14 mi) upriver from the Iguazu's confluence with the Paraná River. These matter of fact details do nothing to describe the grandeur of the falls, the tremendous amount of water (an average of 553 cubic feet per second) thundering down 269 feet, the tropical location and the sheer beauty that led Eleanor Roosevelt to say Poor Niagara. Four times the width of Niagara Falls, Iguazu Falls are divided by various islands into separate waterfalls.

It provides an incredible series of vantage points at the different height levels to enhance the breathtaking experience of the falls. The Lake District, aptly named, spans the top half of the continent's southerly Patagonia region, across Argentina and Chile. Neither sight is easy to reach but both are worth the effort. The elderly may also find the various stairways too much to cope with.
