Bosque Alemão

Bosque Alemão is a protected forest in Curitiba featuring native trees, wooden structures, and interconnected trails winding through the green space. The area combines natural forest with thematic elements and multiple pathways for exploring the woodland.

The forest was established in 1996 to honor German immigrants who arrived in Curitiba starting in the early 1800s. Its creation marked a recognition of this community's cultural influence on the city's development.

The forest reflects the heritage of German immigrants who settled in Curitiba, incorporating storytelling elements rooted in European folklore. Visitors experience this cultural connection through narrative sessions and themed pathways that bring traditional tales to life.

The area is open daily with multiple entrances, designated parking, and signs marking the different trails. Wear comfortable shoes as paths can be uneven, and allow time to explore the various sections at a relaxed pace.

A wooden structure shaped like a gingerbread house stands in the forest and hosts storytelling sessions on weekend afternoons, offering an unexpected encounter with fairy tale traditions. This handcrafted building becomes a focal point that many visitors discover during their walks.
