Tourism & Travel / Rural tasks - estancia in Argentina
Spanish term or phrase: selva en galería
Esta frase aparece en la descripción de las actividades que se pueden realizar en una estancia de la provincia de Corrientes, Argentina. Encontré lo que es en español, pero no sé cómo expresarlo en inglés. Any ideas?
Español: ¿Cuándo se la denomina "selva marginal y "en galería"?

Se la califica como marginal cuando se desarrolla sobre la margen de un río, como en las costas del Río de la Plata.

Cuando el río es angosto, la vegetación de ambas márgenes se une formando como un techo, se la denomina selva "en galería", como sucede en muchos de los afluentes de los ríos Uruguay y Paraná.

Context: "Caminatas por los senderos de la "Selva en Galería".

Muchísimas gracias por la ayuda!!
