This vast South American country, second in size only to Brazil, offers visitors some of the greatest wildlife and natural history sights to be found in the region. For many people the main draw will be towards the south of the country and to the windswept plains of Patagonia. The mighty Andes form a perfect backdrop to the deep blue glacier-fed lakes, whilst in the foreground there are Guanacos, Huemuel and Mara roaming the grasslands. Travel north-west and you reach the highest point in South America, the peak of Aconcagua, the region around here is one of enormous cacti, dusty towns and occasional condors. To the north-east are the mighty Iguazu Falls, to the west there is a wonderful Lake District and finally to the east is Peninsula Valdez which is home to a myriad of marine life including Magellanic Penguins and Southern Right Whales.
