Piraí
With hospitality and delicious homemade food, Piraí is able to offer the coziness
and simplicity of rural life. One of the highlights of the activities is to go fishing
or hiking around the Represa de Ribeirão das Lages (Ribeirão das Lages Dam).
The tip for when you are hungry is to visit a local restaurant specialized in
freshwater fish. Trails, hikes and horseback riding complete the itinerary that
starts early in the morning at the Parque Florestal (Forest Park).
