Brasília National Park

Brasília National Park, National park in Federal District, Brazil

Brasília National Park is a protected area covering about 423 square kilometers with diverse Cerrado vegetation, natural springs, and streams. The landscape features numerous caves carved into quartzite and limestone rock formations.

The park was established in 1961 to protect forests surrounding the newly constructed capital city. Its creation was part of broader efforts to preserve the natural environment in the Brasília region.

The park serves as a place where visitors can observe how local communities connect with the Cerrado landscape. Daily use of the trails and natural springs shows how people relate to this environment today.

The park offers several hiking trails, swimming spots, and viewpoints accessible to visitors throughout the year. Different entry points and routes allow exploration of various sections of the protected area.

The park is home to rare wildlife including maned wolves, pampas deer, and giant anteaters living in their natural habitat. These species are characteristic of the Cerrado ecosystem and difficult to spot in other regions of Brazil.
