Covering 350 hectares, the Costanera Sur boasts the largest and most biodiverse green space in Buenos Aires. An added bonus is the picturesque coastline that the park runs along, offering all sorts of fun for visitors. If you’re big on recycling and reusing, you’ll be delighted to learn that the reserve was made on top of the refuse of a former dump site, now serving as a lush, green haven for park-goers.

Urban birdwatchers, keep your eyes on the skies, the waters and the foliage around you because among the exotic birds to see, there are six different kinds of parrots to be found, along with majestic black-necked swans and the graceful great egrets. Watch out for vipers, turtles and even the adorable swamp rodents, the nutria. If you fancy cycling the stretch of the park, go ahead! There are many trails to follow, and you can jog in this energizing space if you want to get your blood pumping. Explore the area to find the three lagoons that are home to different wildlife, and you will find yourself rejuvenated at the end of the day.
