Discover the extraordinary birdlife of the Atlantic Forest at Parque das Aves, one of the most popular wildlife attractions in Foz do Iguaçu.
Located next to Iguaçu National Park, the park is particularly easy to combine with a visit to the Brazilian side of Iguazu Falls.
Parque das Aves is a private conservation institution focused on Atlantic Forest species, with an important role in the rescue, care and conservation of wildlife. More than half of the animals living at the park have stories of rescue and recovery.
Visitors follow an approximately 2 km self-guided trail through the Atlantic Forest and six immersive aviaries, where it is possible to observe birds at very close range. Environmental educators are also available along the route to answer questions and provide information about the animals.
Today, Parque das Aves is home to approximately 1,400 animals from more than 130 species, with most of the species seen along the trail being native to the Atlantic Forest.
The experience is ideal for families, photographers, wildlife enthusiasts and travelers looking for a relaxing complement to the waterfalls.

Your visit begins at Parque das Aves in Foz do Iguaçu, located next to Iguaçu National Park and the entrance to the Brazilian side of Iguazu Falls.
The experience is self-guided, allowing you to explore the park at your own pace along an approximately 2 km fully paved trail surrounded by Atlantic Forest vegetation. The park recommends allowing plenty of time for the visit; although the trail can be completed more quickly, the average visit takes around 3 hours.
Along the route, you will pass through six immersion aviaries, where birds can fly freely within large controlled environments. These areas allow you to observe species such as toucans, macaws, parrots and other Atlantic Forest birds from very close range. Visitors must remain on the designated trail and should not touch or feed the animals.
One of the highlights is the Macaw Aviary, one of the largest of its kind in South America, where macaws and parrots fly through a large forested enclosure. Other areas include the World of Toucans Aviary, Rivers and Mangroves Aviary, Cecropia Aviary, Little Browns Aviary, and the area dedicated to Butterflies and Hummingbirds.
Parque das Aves is much more than a wildlife attraction. Its work focuses on rescue, animal care, scientific research, conservation education and the protection of Atlantic Forest species. A significant proportion of the animals living at the park were rescued and, in many cases, cannot be returned to the wild. Your visit helps support this conservation work.
The park is located next to Iguaçu National Park, making it very convenient to combine both attractions on the same day. The park itself recommends visiting Parque das Aves before heading to the waterfalls.
Parque das Aves is currently open every day, including weekends and holidays, from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM for visitor admission.

"We had a 2 week adventure between Buenos Aires, Iguazu Falls and Salta. All tours, flights, accommodations were thought out for us. Wonderful adventure.
" This was an excellent way to see Iguazu Falls and feel totally taken care of. Everything went really well from the initial contact to help us plan the trip to the airport transfers, flights, tour guide/driver and hotel. The tour guide/driver was great at flexibly meeting our needs and interests and making sure we got as much out of the 2 days as possible. He was very informed about the area and things to do. We could not have asked for a better way to experience this magnificent wonder from God.
" Fantastic experience and certainly worth visiting. The guide was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and punctual. Visits to the waterfalls and the Itaipu dam was just perfect for a day trip.
"Our trip was amazing. Our guide Cesar was the best! He was flexible and so accommodating when rain threatened our trip. He made schedule adjustments and ensured we had the best views of the falls. The entire team did an excellent job from start to finish. Betty and Curt
"We had a great time visiting Iguazu Falls from the Brazilian side. The one day visit which started from our hotel in Rio de Janeiro in the morning and ended with returning to the same hotel in the night went according to plan without any hitches. Our thanks to Walter who made all the arrangements for the visit.
