Itinerary
The history of German immigrants is retold through the Pedras do Silencio Sculpture Park. The Park has more than 80 sandstone works, created by three gauchos sculptors. The journey to know the sculptures is 400 meters and takes place in the midst of nature. Along this walk you will find benches and shadows to contemplate the silence that the sounds of nature bring.
We will also visit the Immigrant Village, where we will see the rescue of the entire history of the arrival of German immigrants
Pay a visit to Praça das Flores (Flowers Square), famous for the flowering plant beds of the season and for hosting the Green Labyrinth, which challenges visitors on a secret path amid cypress trees.
At Casa Sander, located in the Nine Colonies region - colonized by Germans from Bohemia, we will learn about the production of fruit, jellies and artisanal juices.
Then we will visit the Edelbrau Brewery, with themed rooms, stories of the region and the roots of the local culture, curiosities and many other attractions that introduce the public to the fascinating world of beer. From hops to production, the space provides a journey through the scents of the ingredients, the textures, the stories and the flavors of the different styles of Edelbrau beers.
Finally, we will stop for shopping at Mukli Alfajores, which handcrafts alfajores made with authentic Uruguayan Dulce de Leche.

A wonderful walk. I left Gramado with a freelance van. On this tour we learned a bit about the history of German immigration: the natural beauties, the gastronomy and hospitality were what impressed me the most. We went to Green Labyrinth, very cool, played like a teenager. We walked a lot, but I'm warned that we have to reserve the whole day for this tour because we didn't have time to see the Park of Sculptures Stones of Silence and the Garden of the Mill, because I had other corners to visit. Missed to see also handicraft shops, they say they produce delicious jelly... stays for the next visit, because this southern region of the country we need to return and revisit... is a lot of beautiful thing to see and experiment. #2026.

Very good tour, especially the Stones of Silence Park and the Immigrant Village Park. We were accompanied by the guide Fernanda from Broken Tourism, excellent. The tour of the Edelbrau brewery could improve the experience, a lot of reading, but experience even only the tasting and that does not add so much. But very well worth the whole journey, I recommend.
This tour is special for those who want to know all the German culture imprinted in architecture and tradition. Park, super wooded, right in the center of the city and full of curiosities about the German colonization in the region. The visitor will find a very original village with all the restored facilities created during the time of German colonization.
In Nova Petrópolis do not miss visiting this park, super wooded, right in the center of the city and full of curiosities about the German colonization in the region. The visitor will find a very original village with all the restored facilities created during the time of German colonization. Super affordable with internal transportation in golf carts. The most important thing is that there is the origin of cooperativism in Brazil, especially the foundation of SICREDI.
I went to 9 years ago and I went now in January 2022. They reformed the place and it is very beautiful and everything very organized and marked. I missed a guide to help a bit in the historical part, but everything was written there so it turned out to be good. It's worth the walk!
Bom dia Sra Milena. Muito obrigado por seu feedback. Vamos reforçar com os guias quanto a parte histórica. Obrigado
