Ervália

Ervália is a municipality in the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais, situated at approximately 800 meters elevation. The administrative center is located at Praça Arthur Bernardes, serving a population of around 19,000 residents.

The municipality grew from a small agricultural settlement into an established administrative division. It became part of the Viçosa microregion and reflects the historical importance of coffee and sugarcane production in the area.

Residents, called Ervalenses, live closely tied to farming and shape the landscape through their daily work in the fields. Visitors see coffee plantations and sugarcane crops throughout the territory, reflecting how people make their living here.

The best way to explore the area is to walk through the agricultural lands or visit the central plaza where administrative buildings are located. The hilly surroundings and moderate climate at this elevation make it pleasant for walking and easy exploration.

The Serra do Brigadeiro sits at the edge and offers access to rare forest landscapes and natural springs. This nature park is less crowded than others in Brazil, preserving important ecosystems while giving visitors a sense of the region's wild side.
