Serra do Aracá State Park, State park in Barcelos, Brazil

Serra do Aracá State Park spans 1,818,700 hectares in northern Amazonas, featuring dense rainforests, mountains reaching 2000 meters, and numerous water systems.

The establishment of the park in March 1990 preceded the recognition of Yanomami Indigenous Territory in 1992, resulting in an 82 percent territorial overlap.

The territory maintains strong connections with Yanomami communities who continue their traditional practices within the overlapping areas of the protected lands.

Access to the park requires a two-day journey by boat from Barcelos through Rio Negro and its tributaries, with mandatory authorization from SEMA.

The park contains El Dorado Falls, measuring 400 meters in height, making it the tallest waterfall in Brazil.
