Serra do Japi, Biological reserve in São Paulo State, Brazil.
The Serra do Japi mountain chain extends across 354 square kilometers, reaching elevations of 1,260 meters within São Paulo's Atlantic Forest region.
European naturalists named this location 'castle of waters' due to its abundant water resources, which supported the development of surrounding municipalities.
The name Japi originates from Tupi-Guarani indigenous language, referring to the multiple natural springs found throughout the mountain range.
Six designated trails provide access to different sections of the reserve, allowing visitors to observe local wildlife and vegetation under preservation guidelines.
The reserve contains two converging forest types: coastal Atlantic Forest and inland forest, creating specialized conditions for plant adaptations.
