This is a 8,341 ha state park (Parque Estadual de Campos do Jordão or Horto Florestal) situated on the slopes of Serra de Mantiqueira in the municipality of Campos do Jordão (São Paulo), on the border with Minas Gerais. It encompasses low mountains, hills, and deep valleys at altitudes 1,030-2,007 m. The park contains important remnants of moist Araucaria angustifolia and Podocarpus forest, grasslands, and plantations of exotic pines (mostly Pinus elliottii and P. taeda) established in the 1940s to encourage reforestation. Notable wildlife species include cougar (Puma concolor) and Vinaceous-breasted Amazon (Amazona vinacea). Overall, the park harbours 63 species of mammals, 186 species of birds, 98 species of reptiles and amphibians, 9 species of fish, and 843 species of plants. Horto Florestal was established in 1941.
