What it is

Paraguarí department, with its hills, valleys and colonial-era towns such as Yaguarón, Sapucai and La Colmena, hosts one of the rounds of the National Rally Championship. The cars race on dirt roads between hills and fields, with big local crowds along the stages and at the ceremonial start ramp. Late April brings mild temperatures, perfect for pairing the race with the railway museum in Sapucai or the Franciscan church of Yaguarón.
