Parque da Cantareira

Being from São Paulo, one of the places I most like to walk when I have time is this park. In the northern part of the city, it is open daily from 9.00 to 17.00 and there is a 10 km walk from which you can see the city. It is not an easy walk but doing it calmly you can spend 3 nice hours there. To enter you have to pay R$5 (2.17 euros). If you are a student you pay half price. I recommend bringing food and water because no food is sold there. I also advise going by car. There is parking right in front of the entrance to the park but if you have no car you can get off at the metro station Tucuruvi and take a taxi.
