Things to see and do Guairá

The highest waterfall in the country, at 60 m high. It is more beautiful after a few days of rain, but it is precisely there that the track is the most difficult (1 hour in 4x4). So the best way to get there is by bike. In the dry season, the waterfall is just a trickle, a little disappointing. The site has been laid out with iron stairs and guides available on site. A zip line (200 m long and 80 m high) awaits the most daring (another is planned). The viewpoint of Cerro de la Cruz (555 m high) is 1 km away.

A municipal park in the middle of which is the lagoon of Ykua Pytá, "quiet lagoon" in Guarani. The park is named after the author of the famous guarania Panambi verá, who grew up in Villarrica. A monument shows the poet Manuel Ortíz Guerrero resting against a tree, under the wings of a huge butterfly, panambi in Guarani. Keep your eyes open, you may see one of the capybaras that live around the lagoon. The capybara, or carpincho, is the largest rodent in the world.
