Geral Mountains, mountain escarpment of the southern and eastern reaches of the Paraná Plateau. It constitutes the principal mountain relief of interior southern Brazil. Stretching east-west across northern Rio Grande do Sul state to the great escarpment in Santa Catarina state, it then turns and runs north-northwestward through central Paraná state and into São Paulo state, where it takes the name Serra de Botucatu.
