Cozy country house in the mountains of Serra da Mantiqueira, near... BLACK NEEDLES

Sítio Paraíso Verde is a cozy country estate, covering about 3 ha., located in the Mantiqueira Highlands at an elevation of 1,330 m, in the municipality of Itamonte (southern Minas Gerais), with very easy access, along the BR-354 Highway (Rio-São Lourenço Highway), about 1 hour before São Lourenço, and a short distance from the Itatiaia National Park (upper section) and its peaks. It is therefore also an excellent base for exploring the Agulhas Negras and Prateleiras.
It features a recreation area with a sauna and heated hot tub as OPTIONAL amenities, available to guests for R$ 280.00 per day of use (billed separately).
