The Turvo State Park (Portuguese: Parque Estadual do Turvo) is a state park in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
It protects the last large area of well-preserved Upper Uruguay forest in the state, which is home to several rare or endangered species.
The park is best known for the dramatic Yucumã Falls on the Uruguay River, the second-widest in the world by some measures.
The falls may be threatened by flooding from the planned Garabí-Panambi Hydroelectric Complex if a 2015 court ruling is overturned.
