It is a forest area that was planted essentially for the supply of wood used in the construction of vessels that left shipyards on the banks near the Coina River, at the time of the Discoveries. Currently, the Forest is a privileged place for sports, recreation and leisure activities. The two picnic parks, the different fountains, the duly marked walking and mountain biking routes and the Environmental Education Center are available to all those wishing to spend a different day, in contact with nature.
