Route

The trail sets out from the Fazenda chapel (Capela de São Columbano e Cruz Céltica) and follows the Blue route toward the small patch of forest where the Fazenda's submarines are located. It continues past the large tree-lined lanes and groves dedicated to environmental restoration through the planting of trees from the Cerrado and other Brazilian biomes. These areas are identified as groves named after the trees that predominate there, such as the Ipês, Barus, Guerobas, Pupunhas and Pau Brasil groves and the Alameda das Copaíbas. Then it heads toward the Torre-Oratório de São Patrício e Santos Célticos, the Grande Símbolo da Roda e Cruz. Afterward, the trail heads toward the Monumento Natural da Pedra Fundamental. Along the way, it passes the Escultura da Democracia do Futuro before reaching the Pedra Fundamental. On the way back, you reach the Jardim Zen Budista, the Jardim dos Mestres and the starting point again.
