Parque da Rocha Moutonnée

The park contains a granite formation with glacial grooves and striations, demonstrating the geological processes that occurred 300 million years ago.

Geologist Marger Gutmans discovered the geological formation in 1946, leading to its recognition as evidence of glacial origins in the Paraná Basin rocks.

The park features educational panels explaining Earth's evolution, dinosaur replicas, and interactive exhibits that showcase the region's geological importance.

Visitors can access the park from Tuesday to Sunday between 8:30 AM and 4:30 PM, with free admission and facilities including parking and restrooms.

The site displays the only known moutonnée rock outcrop in the Paraná Basin, formed during a major glaciation in the Southern Hemisphere.
