The Canyons & Waterfalls of South Brazil
3-7 Nights
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.
This tour of the canyon-lands of Southern Brazil takes you to enjoy some of the finest views in Brazil, with canyons, waterfalls, rainforest, high meadows, lagoons, beach and ocean all making part of panoramas, often from the same spot!
Trails take you upriver to the mouths of canyons, with vertical walls towering hundreds of metres above, or across the high meadows above to the very edge of vertical drops. Some of the highest waterfalls in Brazil drop into the canyons, and close up views of them from above and below make part of every day. Birds, butterflies and dragonflies colour the trails, along with the native vegetation. Monkey and deer are other possible sightings during this tour along the borders of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina states.
This tour can be tailored to weather and ground conditions, especially considering cloud cover and river levels. Horse-rides, rapelling, climbing and ziplines are also possible inclusions. Multi-day treks and horse-rides can also be organised in the right season, national park rules permitting.
The twin towns of Canela and Gramado make a convenient final stop in the rolling hills of Rio Grande do Sul, with more waterfall and valley trails, riding of gaucho horses, and wine-tasting possible in the area.
This area is still rarely visited by foreign tourists, but with so many natural delights then your tour of the canyonlands is sure to open your eyes to the natural wonders of South Brazil.
