The Area of Environmental Protection of Vacacaí-Mirim has not yet been established and is in the process of discussion. The general objective this paper consists on presenting a proposal to delimitate the area, comparing the proposed by NASCIMENTO (2010). Through a deductive method of research and a systemic approach, tried to achieve the objective through the concept of landscape, making it a geographic contribution to environmental studies.The results showed that the more conserved Mata Atlântica remaining can be found in the Rebordo do Planalto landscape unit.The delimitation proposal presents a format more suitable for conservation, reducing the edge effect on vegetation and increasing the breadth of it, adding approximately 88 km².
