Situated in the Minas Gerais State of Brazil, about 330 kilometres from Belo Horizonte, Sao Roque de Minas is known as the main gateway to the magnificent Serra da Canastra National Park, one of the largest in the country. The park offers a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts to explore with its enthralling caves; spectacular waterfalls and several series of rapids; and Cerrado and Atlantic Forests. Make sure to visit the 60-storey-high Casca d'Anta Waterfall, which features lovely natural pools of clear waters at the top. Lucky hikers may spot giant armadillos, maned wolves, giant anteaters, and other animals. Food lovers will delight in the chance to try the full-bodied, spicy Canasta Cheese made in the area, which has recently been given a title of cultural heritage.
