General information

Program details

It is located on the road to the Falls, in front of the Visitors Center of the Iguazú National Park.

The Bird Park has 16 hectares of secondary forest of which 7 hectares are used for facilities and the rest for the preservation area. The visit is made by signposted walkways in the middle of the jungle. They lead to the various nurseries, each 630 m² and 8 meters high, enriched by waterfalls, bridges and a lot of vegetation, where it is possible to appreciate the behavior of the different species of birds. In other smaller nurseries, species from Southeast Asia, Oceania and Africa are found. In one of the vivariums you can see butterflies and hummingbirds from the region. In another natural environment there are alligators and reptile vivariums.

In the middle of the trail, it is possible to observe a Jibóia (a kind of snake) up close. At the end, we have a restaurant with an exclusive view of the Lake of the Flamingos. The park maintains more than 900 birds of 150 species, the majority of which are Brazilian birds. A third of the species are considered at risk of extinction. All the birds in the park come from zoos, hatcheries authorized by IBAMA and from rehabilitation centers. All animals are registered in accordance with the Brazilian Zoological Society and IBAMA. The place has a structure with a souvenir shop, bathrooms and a snack bar. Ideal for the whole family.
