Top Tours and Activities in São Roque de Minas

São Roque de Minas is a charming getaway in the heart of Brazil, nestled at the gateway to the impressive Serra da Canastra National Park. This peaceful town delights visitors with its natural beauty, waterfalls, scenic countryside, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It’s a perfect destination for those looking to unwind, enjoy authentic Brazilian cheese, and explore untouched landscapes.

A Glimpse Into Its Past

Founded in the late 18th century, the town grew around mining activities and agriculture. Over time, it became known as the main entrance to the Serra da Canastra, preserving both its rural traditions and simple way of life.

When to Visit

The best period to visit is from April to September when rainfall is low and the waterfalls are at their clearest. Summer months (October to March) bring more rain, making trails slippery but also breathing life into the lush green surroundings.

What activities can I enjoy here?

Nature lovers can hike to the famous Casca d’Anta waterfall, explore the trails of Serra da Canastra, and spot wildlife such as maned wolves and giant anteaters. Cheese tasting, river dips, and beautiful sunsets are also a must.

How do I reach the area?

Most travelers arrive from Belo Horizonte or São Paulo by car or private transfer. Public transport options are limited, so booking a tour or transfer is highly recommended for convenience and comfort.
