If you've made it to Espírito Santo, don't miss this gorgeous state park. Rangers lead guided walks affording magnificent views of Pedra Azul and the surrounding forest and farmland, with stops at the rock’s nine natural pools. Bring a swimsuit and sturdy shoes – the climb is moderately difficult, and there’s a short section where ropes are used to scale a steep rock face. The round trip takes three hours; book ahead, as schedules vary according to demand.
Note that independent climbing and camping are not permitted in the park.
