The Graciosa Road was the first connection between the then Vila de Curitiba and the coast of Paraná, which took advantage part of the paths the Indians who inhabited that zone.

The first record about this route dates back to 1721, and the construction to make this the first paved road in Paraná began in 1854, a year after the state was separated from São Paulo, becoming a province.

It was important for the state's economy, flowing to the Paraná coast a lot of riches, especially wood, yerba mate and coffee.

With the construction of the railway and the Route BR-277, the Graciosa Road ceased to have economic importance, and became a tourist point, as it is a very beautiful road that cuts through the Serra do Mar and it Atlantic Forest.

In addition, Estrada da Graciosa is very popular with cyclists and motorcyclists, who come from the most varied states of Brazil to enjoy its landscape.
