The Ibera Marshes have a special charm all year round. Each season has a different appeal. That's why it is always a good time to travel and enjoy this paradise.

It is a stunning destination with a unique, one of a kind ecosystem. It is the gateway to a paradise of plant and animal life.
The word "Ibera" in Guarani language means "bright waters". It is said that the old Guarani took this name to represent the way the moon is reflected in the lagoons and marshes of the lower area of Corrientes.

The Ibera Marshes make up the most important wetland in Argentina. In 1983 they became Natural Reserve. Today they belong to the "Ramsar" net which protects the wetlands so they do not lose their ancestral qualities, allowing anyone who visits them to contemplate their pure state. It covers a surface of 1.300.000 hectares of marshes, lagoons and wetlands.

These low lands constantly flood and become part of the natural habitat of many animal species and of a great variety of flora, they are not only source of water for human consumption.

The area consists of rainforest, palms and grasslands, each essential piece of the ecosystem. Although very different from each other they act in perfect harmony to be home for hundreds of animal species. There is a lot of leafy vegetation floating in the lagoon. The camalotes can be found between the masses of floating weeds and move to the rhythm of the waters. We can also see water poppy, rushes, aquatic nettles and many other types of vegetation.

Efforts are done continuously to keep them as intact as possible. It is the way to conserve natural and cultural resources as well as protecting animal species since many of them are unfortunately in danger of extinction. Attempts are made to take measures in order to make "conservation" the place's motto and keep it the most autochthonous possible.
