Caazapá National Park, National park in southeastern Paraguay

Parque nacional Caazapá covers diverse ecosystems comprising dense forests, grasslands, and natural springs throughout the Caazapá Department. The park features varied habitats and natural features that visitors can explore across its terrain.

The protected area was established as a national park in 1976 and received its current name in 2015 following an earlier designation. This change reflected the country's administrative review of its protected spaces.

The name Caazapá derives from the Guaraní phrase Ka'aguy jehasapa, meaning 'after the forest'. Mbya Guaraní and Ache communities live near the park and move through its territory; their diet includes fish such as Synbranchus marmoratus and Astyanax bimaculatus caught in park waters.

The park lies in Caazapá Department, about 230 km from Asunción by road. Access is by dirt tracks; the sources describe no marked trails or visitor facilities, so plan for self-sufficiency. Wood extraction and fires have been reported inside the park, and rangers have been attacked, so check conditions locally before entering.

A rock spring called Ykua Bolaños maintains its water flow even during extended dry periods when many other water sources dry up. This feature makes the location valuable for hikers needing water and reveals interesting geological properties of the area.
