The park is named after the Quilombo Corumbataí, one of several historic maroon settlements established in the interior of São Paulo state.
The Santa Terezinha region, where the park is situated, was historically influenced by the expansion of the sugarcane economy in the Piracicaba valley.
The layout incorporates native vegetation typical of the Atlantic Forest biome, which was once prevalent in the region.
