Visiting the Argentine side of the falls offers three different trails, each providing unique views of this natural wonder. The first stop is Cataratas Station, from where visitors can take the Upper Trail or the Lower Trail. Another must-see attraction is the Devil’s Throat (Garganta del Diablo), accessible by a 1-kilometer walkway over the river, leading to an up-close view of this gigantic waterfall.
