    This is in the list of the most beautiful train trips I have made already (starring alse the Oslo-Bergen).

    Trip takes about 2 and a half hours from Central Station in Curitiba to Morretes... you begin with the views of Curitiba surroundings and then the atlantic rain forest starts to show up... many waterfalls, fauna & flora, mountains, fresh air and breathtaking landscape!

    It costs from R$30 to R$90 per person ($10-$30) in the left side of the train (THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: purchase tickets for the left side to sit at the viewside).

    If you are in a car returning to Curitiba from a day trip to Morretes, no doubt your friend/driver/guide will take you back via the Stone Road in Graciosa. The stone road is literally that--a road paved with stones originally laid in 1873. While it makes for a bumpy ride, aesthetically it is beautiful--not just the road itself, but the sights along the way, including lots of beautiful hydrangeas (hortensias.) Don't worry, the Stone Road is only a portion of the entire drive back to Curitiba. So, if you were planning to doze off in the car after falling into a post-barreado protein coma, driving along the Stone Road will likely wake you up for a bit!

    The real treat is to stop off at one of the many stands that sell the regional specialties of banana and ginger ice cream and candies (and banana whiskey! But make sure you have a designated driver!)
