The entire assemblage of mountains is so vast that it includes along with it the states\u2019 third largest peak- Pico das Agulhas Negras, which is 2,878 meters high.<\/p>\n

Over the years, the Park has attracted tourists from all over the world for activities like bird watching, mountain climbing, and hiking and of course the most important out of them being- scenic beauty and waterfalls. The lower area contains the waterfalls and is closer to the city of Itatiaia. The Park has been divided into the high area containing all the mountains such as Agulhas Negras and Prateleiras.
