Terra Roxa Fields
Vast agricultural mosaics showcasing the famous deep red soil characteristic of Northern Paraná.
Apucarana & Londrina

Escarpa Devoniana
The geological step-up between the second and first plateaus of Paraná, creating dramatic terrain shifts.
Curitiba Skyline

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh western sun. This side is particularly rewarding as you cross the Escarpa Devoniana; the sudden change in elevation and vegetation is highly visible.
