Serra do Itajaí National Park

Serra do Itajaí National Park encompasses dense forests, mountainous terrain, and numerous waterways across multiple municipalities in the state of Santa Catarina.

The Instituto Chico Mendes de Conservação da Biodiversidade established this national park in 2004 to safeguard the local ecosystems and native species.

Environmental education programs at the park connect local communities with conservation efforts through guided experiences and scientific research opportunities.

Visitors can access the park through designated entry points, where staff provide information about available hiking trails and wildlife observation areas.

The park serves as a research center for tropical ecosystem studies, hosting scientists who monitor and document the behavior of endangered species.
