The Pepiri-Guazu River is a cool river that flows between two big countries in South America: Argentina and Brazil. It is also known as Río Pepirí Guazú in Spanish and Rio Peperi Guaçu in Portuguese. This river forms a part of the international border between these two nations. It starts in the north and flows south until it joins the Uruguay River.
Where the River Flows
The Pepiri-Guazu River acts like a natural line, separating parts of Argentina from the Santa Catarina state in southeastern Brazil. It's not a very long river, but it plays an important role as a border.
Joining the Uruguay River
The river's journey ends when it flows into the Uruguay River. The Uruguay River is a much larger river that also forms borders between countries in South America.
