Iguazú · The Great Water · day 1
Garganta del Diablo
Why here
The single most overwhelming spot at the falls; a catwalk carries you right to the lip of the abyss.
Half a river vanishing into a roar.
When to come
season
all year (fullest Dec–Feb)
time
morning light with the rainbow
weather
sunny for the rainbow, but expect spray
crowd
the catwalk queues by midday
⊘ You will get soaked by the spray — bag your camera and phone, and the long metal catwalk to it can close in floods.
