Program details
Bask in the beauty of the Vila Velha State Park, where 600 million years of erosion, volcanic eruptions and glaciation have carved incredible sculptures, known as aretinhas, from the sandstone.
The park was created in 1953 and was listed as a State Heritage destination in 1966. Here over 20 vast rock shapes rise from the lush vegetation, each one named after the object it resembles.
Visit the Vila Velha State Park* which has a set of natural attractions, including rock formations, and sandstones that are millions of years old, which due to winds and rains have acquired curious shapes, such as the Indian, the boot, the camel and the chalice. See the furnas, deep caves formed by an underground river.
The tour continues with a visit to Colônia Witmarsum with a delicious typical German lunch. The village is full of family stores that sell colonial products produced in the region, such as cheese, salami and biscuits.
