Argentina Tours & Travel | Mburucuya National Park

Located within the massive Esteros del Ibera, one of the world's most significant wetlands, 37,000-acre Mburucuya National Park was established in 2000 to preserve the Chaco forests, palm groves, grasses and swamps. It is located in Corrientes Province. The park is inhabited by some 150 bird species as well as many rare mammals including howler monkeys, caiman, jaguars, deer, foxes and capybara, making for a variety of unique sights on Argentina tours.

Land for the park was donated by Dr. Troels M. Pederson who owned an estancia here. Some 5000 years before him, indigenous hunter and agricultural communities inhabited the region, cultivating yerba mate, vegetables, tobacco and tapioca.
The park has marked trails for hiking, a visitors' center and camping facilities with toilets and potable water for those who wish to camp out when they travel to Argentina. The closest cities are Mburucuya and Palmer Grande.
