The Rio Vermelho is a river flowing through the southern part of the city of Rondonópolis in Mato Grosso, Brazil. Its urban stretch near the city center is a primary access point for paddlers, featuring a scenic pier area known as the Rio Vermelho Pier, located at R. Floriano Peixoto, 42. This central location makes the pier easily reachable on foot from many points in Rondonópolis, serving as a convenient launch site. The river flows past the Dom Osório Stoffel State Park on its south (left) bank, providing a notable natural feature and a potential area of scenic interest during a paddle. The river's character in this urban area is defined by its accessibility and the presence of developed facilities. Boat ramps and fishing access points in the vicinity of the pier support kayaking and paddle boarding activities. The overall experience is centered around convenient urban river access with a view of protected parkland along one bank.
