The next morning, we tried to go hiking at a park nearby... Alas, our legs were too tired to make the 10 mile hike down to the river. So tired we didn't go far beyond the summit of the park. But it was beautiful!
The park also had a lot of religious shrines -- it's a pilgrimage site.
After the park, we took a walk around Gramado, the most famous and tourist-laden of the towns. It's famous for making artisan chocolates, and we sampled chocolates a few of the shops.
Later we went to a scenic overlook next to the oldest hotel in the town. It was so beautiful! Did I mention that there are walls of hydrangeas as far as the eye can see?

The city had already put up its Christmas decorations!
A gaucho snowman!
