Paracambi
In Paracambi, the practically virgin Atlantic Forest shelters waterfalls, rivers
and trails that bring joy to nature lovers and extreme sports practitioners, such
as canoeing and rafting. In order to experience all of its beauty, you can go
hiking, horseback riding around the garden, go on the Circuito Rural Ponte
Coberta (Ponte Coberta Rural Circuit) to taste the delicious local cachaça and
visit the Instituto Superior de Tecnologia (Higher Technology Institute), the old
knitwear factory that has been transformed into a Cultural Center.
