A new way of traveling is coming, and not only because of the protocols to which you have to be attentive to take care of yourself.

The changes that the pandemic is driving bring a new perspective to think about vacations and tourism, to see the map with different eyes,

away from the large crowds and in open spaces to enjoy with tranquility

.

Today, nature destinations, outdoor options, lesser-known corners but with potential and attractions, and tourism in rural areas are beginning to sound louder.

And, within the framework of the development proposed by the Ministry of Tourism and Sports in charge of Matías Lammens, the

50 Destinations plan

aims precisely at consolidating emerging destinations with a series of infrastructure works throughout the country.

The Moconá Provincial Park is located within the Yabotí Biosphere Reserve (“turtle” in Guaraní), in the east-central region of Misiones, in the Municipality of San Pedro and near El Soberbio.

These are places with many opportunities to develop and with much potential to offer travelers, where tourism promotes sustainable development.

In

Misiones

, it encompasses a series of attractions, some better known and consolidated and others to be discovered, among which are El Soberbio, Parques Provinciales Moconá and Salto Encantado, Salto Berrondo in Oberá, Chimiray de Apóstoles municipal spa, San Javier, Campo Ramón and Garuhapé.

Between enchanted jumps and missionary jewels: a journey to go further

Misiones is full of jewels to discover and there the investment of the aforementioned plan is 60 million pesos in works to improve the experience of the tourists who visit them.

From new facilities in spas and campsites, visitor information centers and even sustainable impact works such as a photovoltaic solar generation system.

It is that, beyond its world-renowned destination, there are routes and corners that reveal incredible landscapes and attractions.

For example, a pearlite very close to the missionary capital is the

Cañadón de Profundidad Provincial Park

.

Between the flight of saracuras, white woodpeckers and black robes, it is a good opportunity to have a first approach to the jungle, which has an outpost to the south there.

Between tea and yerba mate plantations, the central mountains, streams, streams, exuberant vegetation and large jungles with waterfalls and waterfalls, the picturesque

Oberá

(home of the National Immigrant Festival) offers nature, gastronomy and traditions.

Nearby, the

Berrondo waterfall

is one of the most attractive landscapes.

The Berrondo waterfall is located 8 kilometers from Oberá, on Route 103. The "Provincial Summer Festival" is celebrated there.

Another place, northeast of the capital, is

El Soberbio

, from where you can access the

Saltos del Moconá

, one of the main attractions of the province.

In the middle of the jungle, it is a unique setting: a natural spectacle that occurs over three kilometers, thanks to a geological fault that generates transverse falls of water parallel to its channel, unlike a waterfall or a waterfall.

The jumps can reach 10 meters in height.

The area is a Provincial Park and includes the Yabotí biosphere.

The area is ideal to get in touch with nature and go trekking, animal sightings and boat and kayak rides.

Also to the northeast of Posadas and 6 kilometers from Aristóbulo del Valle: the

Enchanted Falls

, one of the most impressive falls in the province.

It is the main attraction of the Provincial Park that bears his name, more than 13,000 hectares of pure nature, with viewpoints, trails, gastronomic services and is attended by specialized personnel, park rangers and tour guides.

El Salto Encantado is the main attraction of the Provincial Park that bears its name, with more than 13,000 hectares of nature.

And nearby, to the north, is also

Garuhapé

, located on National Route 12. Among its main attractions is the Gruta India Municipal Complex, of recognized archaeological and natural wealth, which has cabins and facilities for tourist use.
