Tour Details
300 million years ago the sedimentary layers of the sandstone were formed at the bottom of the ocean, which we can contemplate with the maximum splendor in the old Village Park, but only in the Cenozoic 65 million years, a large geological folding made these plates emerge and broke They formed the 3 paranaenses plateaus.

In modern history, the region became important because it was the natural step of livestock herds, which came from southern Brazil to São Paulo, the known time of "Tropeiros" (cowboys), generating a singular cultural richness, with its food, the social customs connected to the Journey, and the experience of the landscapes. It was soon in the twentieth century the settlement area of the central-European migrants fleeing the wars, and they are currently leading agricultural development worldwide.
This horseback riding is ideal for those who want to experience this escarpment and its valleys, and know its natural attraction in an active way. Discover the history of the first settlers walking with us through the region of São Luiz de Purunã
