Parque Provincial Salto Encantado, Nature reserve with 64-meter waterfall in Misiones, Argentina.

The protected area spans 13,227 hectares featuring the Salto Encantado waterfall cascading down basalt cliffs surrounded by dense vegetation and numerous hiking trails.

The park received its protected status to preserve the native forests of Misiones province and maintain the ecological balance of the Cuña Pirú stream watershed.

The name Cuña Pirú originates from Guaraní language meaning 'skinny woman', reflecting the indigenous heritage of the Misiones region.

The reserve operates daily from 9 AM to 5 PM with separate entrance fees for nationals and foreigners, including access to viewpoints and interpretive trails.

The park hosts monthly astrotourism events called 'Cielo Guaraní' where visitors learn about indigenous interpretations of celestial configurations.
