Overview

Bosque Reinhard Maack is a specialized park in the Hauer neighborhood of Curitiba focused on outdoor physical education for children. The park features a 600-meter long trail equipped with obstacles such as balance beams, rope bridges, and climbing walls designed for recreational exercise. The site preserves an original remnant of the Atlantic Forest, providing a dense canopy of native vegetation. It serves as an educational space intended to teach children about local biodiversity while promoting physical activity. The trail is structured to encourage coordination and motor skills through its integrated apparatus. The area covers approximately 78,000 square meters of urban green space. It is maintained by the Curitiba municipal government as part of the city's extensive park system.

Insider tips

Wear athletic, closed-toe footwear as the terrain consists of dirt paths and wood chip surfaces.

Bring mosquito repellent, as the dense forest cover creates a humid environment favored by insects.

Parents should accompany children on the trail to assist with the higher obstacles.

What to avoid

Do not attempt to use the adventure trail equipment during or immediately after heavy rainfall, as the wooden structures become extremely slippery.

Good to know

The park typically closes for maintenance on certain weekdays; check official city notices before visiting.

Etiquette

Maintain silence to observe local birdlife, refrain from removing flora or fauna, and use designated waste bins.
