Ecotourism in Buenos Aires

Eco-tourists will feel their heart beating faster in a fabulous place in Buenos Aires: the Buenos Aires Ecological Reserve. 

The Great Egret
The Buenos Aires Ecological Reserve also known as the Reserva Ecológica Costanera Sur is a 865-acre low land territory on the Río de la Plata riverbank located in Puerto Madero only 10 minutes from downtown Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Ecological Reserve is worth a visit if you want to escape from the noise and pollution of the metropolis and discover nature trails where you can watch birds, stroll, cycle, and marvel at the beautiful landscape consisting of a great variety of typical coastal plants and characteristic fauna such as the Pampas Grass. You will be able to observe 60-90 species including bird species such as the Coscoroba, the Great Egret, the Black-necked Swan and White-tufted Grebe. Other wildlife you might be able to admire are the Coypu, Pampas Cavy, Hillary’s Side-necked Turtle and Black Tegu Lizard.
