The tourism in protected areas has increased 300% in Brazil in the last 13 years, recording 15 million visitors in 2019 – the last year before the pandemic. This is what a report prepared by the Boticário Group Foundation for Nature Protection reveals .
The data indicate, however, that the destination of tourists is still highly concentrated (67%) in the National Parks of Tijuca (Cristo Redentor), Iguaçu , Foz (Cataratas), and Serra da Bocaina (Adventure tourism on the border of the States of Rio and São Paulo).
