Vila Velha State Park or the Old Village State Park (Portuguese: Parque Estadual de Vila Velha) is a state park in the city of Ponta Grossa, Paraná State, Brazil. It covers 3,803 hectares (9,400 acres). It is located at one hundred kilometers from Curitiba, capital of the State of Paraná. The set of formations resembles a medieval city with its castles and towers in ruins, hence its name.
Hidden in the heart of Paraná, the Old Village State Park is a dreamscape where time, wind, and water have sculpted stone into poetry. As you wander hand in hand through towering sandstone formations shaped like goblets, camels, and castles, it feels as though nature itself carved this place for lovers. The quiet of the ancient forest, the shimmer of crystal-clear lagoons, and the golden glow of sunset over the Furnas craters create a setting that’s as timeless as your shared journey.
