PETAR - Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira (446 words)
The karst here lies in the transition zone between the Atlantic Plateau, at 800-1,200 m in the northwest of the Park, and the Coastal Lowlands to the East and Southeast, with altitudes up to about 600m.
The Park is drained by the Betari, Iporanga and Pilões rivers, whose sources lie at the edge of the Atlantic Plateau (locally known as the Guapiara Plateau) at between 900 and 1,100 m, and flow into the Ribeira river at about 70-80 m.
The water action in the lime stones in a thousand years period allowed the formation of caves with floor, walls and ceilings decorated with many speleotems, like stalactites, stalagmites, columns, curtains, etc. The PETAR caves are divided into "dry" and "wet" caves.
