## About

La Aripuca is a large construction made from fallen native tree trunks, shaped like the trap the Guaraní used to catch birds. It works as an awareness centre about the rainforest and its conservation.
It is on route 12, on the way to the falls, and has a craft shop and regional food.

**Local tip:** Good for your arrival or departure day: it is on the way to the park.
