Ilha Grande National Park, River islands conservation area in Paraná and Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil
The national park spans 76,033 hectares along the Paraná River, containing 180 islands, natural ponds, and freshwater marshes near the Paraguay border.
The Brazilian government established Ilha Grande National Park in 1997 to protect the biological diversity of the upper Paraná River region.
The territory preserves archaeological sites where Guarani Indians and Xetás previously lived, leaving behind evidence of their ancient settlements.
Visitors can access free tours daily, explore small beaches, swim in designated areas of the Paraná River, and take guided boat excursions.
The park shelters the marsh deer, its symbol species, alongside brown howler monkeys and southeastern four-eyed opossums in their natural habitat.
