Monte Municipal Park, also known as Leite Monteiro Park, covers an area of 26,000 m2 and lies at the highest altitude of all the municipal parks - between 543 and 586 meters above sea level. Construction on the park began in 1894 and the first phase was completed in 1899.
The site, which is covered by many indigenous and exotic species, including some centuries-old trees, is refreshing and relaxing, thanks in part to a stream that passes through it and ends at a waterfall at the southernmost area of the park. The pedestrian walkways that run through the park are paved with small basalt rocks ideal for pleasant strolls.
