Which are the most important national parks

National Parks From Iguazu Falls to Tierra del Fuego, Argentina maintains a number of national parks (PN), natural reserves (RN or AN), provincial or regional parks (PP) and national monuments (NM). Most of the better known ones are in Patagonia, but a visitor to many of the areas within the country is sure to find a regional national park. The parks have an impressive variety of eco-environments, topography, flora and fauna, archaeological and palaeontologic importance and climates. A number of parks are on UNESCO's World Heritage List for natural values. Enjoy our photos of many of the national parks. Visitors enjoy fishing, trekking, rafting, horse-riding, mountain biking and photographic safaris and other recreational activities.
