From the hotels, we head towards National Route 101, a road frequented by settlers, tourists, and locals visiting relatives in the area.
We arrive at the Gendarmerie post, where our adventure begins. Here, we equip ourselves with the necessary gear and prepare for the journey.
Immerse yourself in the wildest nature of the area with our bike tour, considered the most rugged in the region. We will traverse an internal road, belonging to the Iguazú National Park and its untouchable sector, exploring corners that few have had the privilege of knowing.

We pedal 2 km along the road until we reach the trail within the jungle. Continuing our journey, we pedal another 3 km until we reach the banks of the Iguazú River.
Depending on participants' physical fitness and preferences, additional distances can be covered to enjoy the rugged and unexplored landscape.
During the ride, we make interpretive stops to observe the local flora and fauna, including small mammals, birds, and butterflies.

During this experience, we take advantage of the cooler moments to increase our chances of spotting small mammals and birds that inhabit this unique ecosystem. This environment becomes the perfect setting to understand the workings of the jungle and reflect on the importance of its conservation.
Following this ancient trail, we will reach the banks of the Iguazú River, where we will visit the old Puerto Canoas. From this point, there was access to the majestic Garganta del Diablo. Although we won't be able to see the waterfalls from here, we will be able to feel their powerful roar, which characterizes this natural wonder.

After the exploration, we return along the same path to reach the Gendarmerie post, where a delicious refreshment awaits us to recharge our energies.

Return to the Hotels: Once rested, we start the journey back to our selected hotels in Puerto Iguazú, where our exciting bike adventure through the jungle concludes.
