Vacations in the Atlantic Forest: Copaíba launches special guided tour program in July

The initiative is aimed at audiences of all ages

Throughout the month of July, the Copaíba Environmental Association invites the public to enjoy a unique experience surrounded by nature. With the aim of promoting connection with the Atlantic Forest and the appreciation of the native forests of the Socorro-SP region, the organization opens its doors for special guided tours, which take place every Thursday at 2 pm.

The program is part of the Copaíba Vacation Program and offers an opportunity to immerse yourself in the ecological restoration work carried out by the institution. Visitors will get to see first-hand the journey of native seeds from the Atlantic Forest, from the moment the seeds arrive at the nursery to their transformation into new forests. In addition, the itinerary includes trails, moments of discovery and direct contact with biodiversity.

For Copaíba environmental educator Viviane Condotta Gabriel, the event is a way to raise awareness of the importance of conservation. “We want each participant to leave here with a new perception of the role of forests and how we can all be part of the transformation. Being in contact with the Atlantic Forest is always an experience that touches and inspires,” she says.

Places are limited and registrations must be made in advance by email at [email protected] or by phone at (19) 99953-8382.

The initiative is aimed at all ages and promises to delight those who want to get off the beaten path on vacation and connect with nature in a profound and inspiring way.
