Description

Pico do Boné (“Cap Peak”), which gets its name from its appearance when viewed from a distance, stands at 1,870 meters above sea level, and its summit is a small plateau measuring 10 by 15 meters, where vegetation of small shrubs and a large number of red-flowered bromeliads predominate. It is one of the highest peaks in the Parque Estadual da Serra do Brigadeiro. From its summit, there is a magnificent 360° panoramic view, where you can see the seas of hills: to the east, the district of Bom Jesus do Madeira; to the south, the Serra do Grama and Pedra do Pato; to the north, Pico do Soares and Pedra Branca; and to the west, the municipality of Araponga.
