Itabira Natural Monument, Protected natural area in Cachoeiro de Itapemirim, Brazil.
The Itabira Natural Monument covers 452 hectares and features a vertical rock formation that resembles an index finger pointing toward the sky.
The initial protection of this area began in 1988 through municipal decree 6159, establishing a reserve of 104 hectares that later expanded to its current size.
The name Itabira comes from Tupi-Guarani indigenous language, referring to the geographical characteristics of the steep rock formation in the monument.
Located 6 kilometers from Cachoeiro de Itapemirim city center, the monument offers opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, and mountaineering activities.
The natural monument provides habitat for endangered species including the red-browed amazon, saffron toucanet, and Neotropical bellbird within Atlantic Forest fragments.
