Steam Train Journey from Piratuba to Marcelino Ramos 🚂✨
Step back in time with this enchanting steam train experience through southern Brazil, as the historic "Maria Fumaça" locomotive takes you on a scenic journey between Piratuba (SC) and Marcelino Ramos (RS). This train, dating back to 1910, travels along the path of the old Ferrovia do Contestado, offering breathtaking views and a touch of nostalgia. The journey follows the historic Contestado Railway, part of the legendary São Paulo–Rio Grande Railway, also known as Itararé–Uruguai. Inaugurated in the early 20th century, this line was vital in connecting Brazil's Southeast and South regions.
The journey highlights the lush Vale do Rio do Peixe and culminates in a stunning crossing over the Uruguay River on a 455-meter Belgian-built bridge. This iconic structure, now over a century old, links Santa Catarina to Rio Grande do Sul and is a testament to engineering and history.
Beyond the natural beauty, the ride features lively performances of regional music, tastings of local delicacies, and views of small rural communities like Auto Maratá and Volta Grande. It’s a cultural and visual feast, celebrating the thermal water destinations of Piratuba and Marcelino Ramos, known for their rejuvenating hot springs.
Don’t miss this weekly heritage journey aboard the Trem das Termas, a vivid reminder of Brazil’s rich railway history and its role in connecting regions and cultures.
Experience the charm, history, and beauty of this one-of-a-kind journey. 🚂🌿
