In turn, a proliferation of rocks and small islands fragmentize the river into numerous arms. Arriving at the fault, each of those forms a waterfall, which together constitute the range of the Iguassu Falls.
Among the most outstanding falls on the Argentinean side are the Álvar Nuñez Falls, located on the lower circuit one of the trail of the park; el Lanusse, also in the lower circuit, the Dos Hermanas, Chico Alférez and Ramirez y Bossetti, all of which are in the upper circuit with an average height of 40 to 60 metres, the Dos Hermanas falls, 8 meters high, form an enchanting natural pool.
The Chico Alférez and the Bossetti break into two parts to create an unforgettable show, while providing a fresh breeze to refresh the spectators on the catwalks.
Higher up are the Mibigua Falls, Adán and Eva and San Martin. This last one is a roaring and deafening spectacle that amazes with the sheer power of the water crashing on the rocks forming a lower, second fall ending the show which began more than 70 metres up, all under an eternal drizzle that sometimes forms an impressive rainbow.
Then a little higher up is located El Escondido, Dos Mosqueteros, Rivadavia, Peñón and Mitre, culminating with the picturesque Unión Falls whose waters surge into the amazing Garganta del Diablo (Devil's Throat) from an approximate height of 80 metres, forming clouds of vapour sometimes visible from points at 7 kilometres away.
