Off Praça de Capivari, the scene of many events in the Winter Festival, runs Avenida Genäve, with half-timbered buildings and elegant shops.
Near this street is Capivari Park, with an 800m/880yd long chair-lift to the summit of the Morro do Elefante (1800m/5900ft), from which there are views of the whole city.
In the park is a lake on which pedalos and rowing boats can be hired; there are rides in horse-drawn carriages; and there is also a karting track.
Get back on the train and head toward the town of Capivari, but hop off a little before, at the Ducha de Prata (Silver Showers), a small man-made waterfall in a lush park with a very pleasant walk of interlinking bridges.
As the main town of Campos, Capivari boasts an impressive array of stores, restaurants and bars in its old world streets.
Return to Capivari for some great dining and drinks, and then hit the Passione Flash nightclub, the hot spot where the beautiful locals and tourists flock.
