National parks, nature reserves and protected areas.

Argentina counts on an extensive system of national parks destined to protect the natural and cultural patrimony of the country.

The first parks were the Nahuel Huapi and the Iguazú, both created in 1934.

Between the last ones they are San Guillermo (1998), the Flake (2000) and the Leoncito (2002).

Altogether there are 27 national parks (in addition to reserves and monuments).

They occupy 4 % of the Argentine territory almost, about 3 million hectares, taken care of by 200 guardaparques approximately.

The Administration of National Parks, regulated by Law 22,351 of 1980, has its seat in avenue Santa Fe 960, in Buenos Aires.

Its management is decentralized and it is in the orbit of the Secretariat of Tourism of the Nation.
