Hiking Tours of Brazil
Our Hiking Tours of Brazil are all basic ideas that can be tailor-made to match your requirements. Any tour can include one or more destinations, and can be purely dedicated to hiking, although some mountains may include a little climbing that is still suitable for those without much experience. We can also arrange serious climbing trips. We can also mix them with other activities such as climbing, kayaking or tandem hang-gliding flights, some regular tourism, and some nightlife. We include all that you need during your trip, the accommodation with breakfast; all airport transfers and other road journeys; any activities and excursions with English-speaking guides and relevant entrance fees; plus some popular extras. For our Hiking Tours of Brazil, you only need to bring your favourite hiking boots and regular outdoor clothing and equipment. Any parts where a little climbing is necessary will include ropes, helmets and safety harnesses. All hikes and climbs are undertaken with an experienced, qualified local guide, with activity insurance included.
15-18 Feb 2018. This short but very sweet trek has you hiking up and out of Lençois, across valleys and rivers, and then up the rocks of dry riverbeds. Wild camping at night, you sleep by the side of rivers and hike up the deep canyon to the bottom of Fumaça, the highest waterfall in Bahia. Next morning you have to hike out of the canyon to see it all from the top! You need to arrive in Lençois on 15 Feb for departure on the trek early on 16 Feb. It finishes in the Vale do Capao on 18 Feb, with departure on the overnight bus back to Salvador from there, or you can continue onwards into the Vale do Pati.
It can also be combined with stays in the town to explore more of the Chapada Diamantina National Park, and makes part of the longer multi-day trek including the Vale do Pati and Buracao.
This two-night Cachoeira da Fumaça Trek is one of the finest short treks in Brazil, taking you right through the middle of our favourite national park for activities. It can also be extended to include more nights before and after to explore Chapada Diamantina.
Combines With: Any other Chapada Diamantina treks and activities; Salvador.
Best Time to Visit: This tour can be taken all year round with the Chapada Diamantina National Park being a little cooler than the North-East Brazil coast, especially at night. April and May are the wet season months in Bahia although inland can still be quite dry even at this time. The advantage of doing the trek with a little rain around is that the waterfalls dropping from the flat-topped mountains are more likely to have plenty of water.
