Serra da Concórdia State Park

Serra da Concórdia State Park is a large protected forest area divided between two municipalities with mountainous and valley terrain. The landscape features dense vegetation with multiple tree species and several trail routes that wind through different sections of the forest.

The protected area was established in the early 2000s and received a substantial expansion years later that multiplied its size. This enlargement made it a more significant refuge for endangered species in the region.

The forest holds local importance as a protected refuge for rare species and as a place where researchers study the diversity of Atlantic Forest ecosystems. Visitors can observe conservation work and understand why this forest matters to the region.

Visitors should bring sturdy footwear and waterproof clothing since trails and conditions vary by season. It is best reached by car, and you should plan time for hiking or activities like canoeing.

This forest section is among the last remaining examples of a rare woodland type that has nearly vanished from the valley. This particular vegetation makes the park a place where visitors can experience a forest that has largely disappeared elsewhere.
