About Jardim Botânico da UFJF
The Jardim Botânico da UFJF occupies part of the Mata do Krambeck, in Juiz de Fora. The route includes lakes with decks, paths surrounded by vegetation and areas linked to environmental education. The Orquidário Frederico Carlos Hoehne can be seen from the outside. The proximity of water and forest helps to notice different environments in a single walk, without needing to leave the city. Visitor entry is through the Santa Terezinha neighborhood, on Rua Coronel Almeida Novais. There is a limit to the number of people present at the same time, so the arrival of groups requires planning. Schools and photo shoots need a separate booking. Wear appropriate footwear for walking, bring water and stay on authorized paths. Check the calendar before you go, as holidays and internal activities may change opening times.
