Três Rios is a city in Rio de Janeiro (state).
Near the main highway between Rio de Janeiro (110 km) and Belo Horizonte, Três Rios can make a nice stop-over, also if you are visiting Petrópolis.
Just outside town, where the three rivers meet, there is a rustic hotel offering white water rafting. The hotel's surroundings are the habitat of a number of peculiar animals, including many large birds, confiscated by the government wildlife agency and let to live in this area.
Action mostly takes place on a strip at the riverfront, Friday and Saturday.
