This article presents an analysis and initial survey of the proposal for an interpretative trail within the Namorados (Valentine) Trail in the city of Arraias, Tocantins, Brazil, the objective is to carry out an analysis of the study area and propose an intervention on the site for the creation of an interpretative trail. The Valentine Trail was chosen for its historical context, as it is a trail of stones, something very common in the city of Arraias and which has a little clarified mystery about its year of construction, or what makes many people judge that they refer to the period of the gold cycle and the agricultural cycle (mid 18th century). The free app “View Ranger” was used to mark the Valentine's trail, which works as a GPS, point marker, height and speed level meter during the journey. This study opens opportunities for further research related to the place of study, being the first to speak specifically about the Valentine Trail, creating a written basis for new studies that address the interpretive trail, especially around Arraias, within the circuit of fences. stones.
