Cerrado State Park

The park covers 1,830 hectares of protected land at the southern limit of the Cerrado biome, featuring four distinct vegetation types including forests and prairies.

Established in March 1992 with 420 hectares, the park expanded to its current size in October 2007 under Governor Roberto Requião's administration.

The Environmental Institute of Paraná manages this conservation area, which represents a transition zone between central Brazil's cerrado and the southeastern seasonal forests.

Located 12 kilometers from Jaguariaíva's center, the park provides hiking trails, observation points, and facilities that reopened in November 2011 after improvements.

Scientists have documented 112 species of ferns and lycophytes within the park, including ten species first recorded in the Devonian Escarpment region.
