Vapor Cué National Park, National park in Cordillera Department, Paraguay

The park extends over 54 hectares along the Yhaguy River, located 4 kilometers from Caraguatay and 98 kilometers from Asunción.

In 1869, during the Triple Alliance War, Paraguayan warships sought refuge in the Yhaguy River to escape from Brazilian naval forces.

The park maintains Paraguayan naval heritage through preserved warship remains, representing a period of national resistance and military strategy.

Visitors can access the site through a paved road from Asunción, with the main attractions being two preserved metal ship hulls from the 19th century.

The recovery operation of the sunken vessels required the construction of a one-kilometer auxiliary canal to divert the river course.
