Cavalgada Centro x Palmares

Description

A contemplative horseback ride that passes through various historical points of Paty, such as the 300-year-old Jequitibá tree and the artificially constructed Lago de Palmares, built by a man who decided to subdivide the valley region. It begins at Praça Manoel Congo, at the monument commemorating the Bicentennial of Paty do Alferes: There are three arches representing the names that Paty has had: Roça de Nossa Senhora da Conceição da Serra Acima, Freguesia de Nossa Senhora da Conceição, and Vila de Nossa Senhora da Conceição de Paty do Alferes. The cherry on top is the paradise known as Sítio Araxá, which, with its orchards, plantations, and viewpoints, offers visitors an unforgettable agroecological experience, as well as lodging and birdwatching. Note: Visits to the mentioned properties are subject to scheduling and/or availability.
