Parque Estadual da Chacrinha, State park in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The park spans 13.3 hectares along the southern slope of Morro de São João, connecting Praça Cardeal Arcoverde to the Leme fortification entrance.

Established in 1969 through Decree 'E' No. 2.853, the park contains ruins of colonial mule paths and the oldest house in Copacabana district.

The name originates from a small estate, and the site received INEPAC Good Class heritage designation in 2002 for its regional importance.

The park features trails suitable for all ages, with playgrounds, benches, and facilities maintaining regular hours for public access throughout the year.

The protected area houses endangered species within its Tropical Low-Altitude Rainforest, including rare pitangueira plants and native Pau-brasil trees.
