Parque Estadual da Serra de Caldas Novas

The Serra de Caldas Novas State Park spreads across 12,315 hectares of protected land at an elevation of 1,043 meters above sea level.

The establishment of the park in 1970 marked a response to protect the natural environment from expanding agriculture and urban development in the region.

The park incorporates educational programs about local flora and fauna while supporting scientific research initiatives focused on cerrado ecosystem preservation.

Visitors can access the park Tuesday through Sunday from 8:00 to 17:00, with guided tours available on two main trails leading to natural waterfalls.

The park's geological structure enables rainwater to heat naturally underground, creating thermal springs that surface through rock fractures at temperatures exceeding 50°C.
