Triple Frontier, International tripoint in South America.

The Paraná and Iguazú rivers intersect at the precise location where Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay meet at their territorial boundaries.

The Triple Frontier gained international recognition in 1903 when the three nations formally established their current borders through diplomatic agreements.

Each country maintains an obelisk painted in national colors at the convergence point, allowing visitors to observe the territories of all three nations.

Regular ferry services connect the three border cities of Puerto Iguazú, Foz do Iguaçu, and Ciudad del Este, enabling travel between the countries.

The Triple Frontier region sits atop the Guarani Aquifer, containing 71 percent of its 1.2 million square kilometers within Brazilian territory.

Part of: Argentina–Brazil border, Argentina–Paraguay border, Brazil–Paraguay border
