Itinerary

Dia 1
Translado de carro: Rodoviária da cidade de Palmeiras ao povoado de Guiné (30km).

Trilha: Aleixo - Gerais do Rio Preto - Banho de Rio - Mirante da Rampa - Casa dos Patizeiros

Duração: 5 horas | Distância: 8 km 

O primeiro dia do nosso roteiro começa na rodoviária da cidade de Palmeiras, de lá faremos um translado de carro até o povoado de Guiné (percurso de 30km), onde começa a nossa trilha. Iniciaremos a trilha pela subida do Aleixo. A subida pode ser desafiadora, com uma inclinação íngreme percorrida em cerca de 1 hora, mas a vista deslumbrante do mirante faz tudo valer a pena. Lá de cima, podemos ver uma vista panorâmica que se estende até o horizonte.

Em seguida partiremos em direção ao Mirante do Pati atravessando os Geraes do Rio Preto com direito a banho de rio no caminho. Depois de desfrutar do Mirante do Pati, uma das mais belas vistas do roteiro, continuaremos nossa caminhada em direção à Rampa. A descida íngreme pela encosta pode ser um pouco difícil, mas vale a pena pelo visual espetacular do vale.

No final do dia pernoitaremos na casa de nativos  onde passaremos a noite em um ambiente acolhedor e familiar. Lá, poderemos desfrutar de uma comida deliciosa e conhecer um pouco mais sobre a cultura e a história da região.

Day 2 - The majestic Funis Waterfall and the top of Morro do Castelo - Duration: 7h | Distance: 8 km

On the second day, the trail continues to the majestic Funis Waterfall and the top of Morro do Castelo, one of the highest points in the Pati Valley. It will be about two hours of steep walking until we reach the top of the hill, at the entrance to the castle cave. We will cross the cave until we come out on the other side where we will have a breathtaking panoramic view. Descending from Morro do Castelo, we continue our walk until we reach the stunning Cachoeira do Funis, with its crystalline waters falling into an emerald green water well.

Day 4 - Cachoeirao Canyon and sunset at Aleixo - Duration: 8h | Distance: 20km

We will depart early on the third day right after breakfast. We will start with a steep climb that will pass through the arrodeio where we will return to the trail towards the cachoeirao Canyon. Considered by many to be the most beautiful canyon in Chapada Diamantina, it is undoubtedly atrue spectacle of nature. With its almost 260 meters high, in times of rain the canyon walls overflow in a formation of more than 20 waterfalls, making the panorama even more fascinating.

After enjoying the view, it's time to say goodbye to the Pati Valley and return to the village of Guinea. Upon arriving at the Aleixo viewpoint, you can reflect on the adventures experienced in the last three days while enjoying a beautiful sunset. Soon after, we will end our adventure making the descent to meet our transport.

*The following itinerary may change due to unexpected weather conditions or any factor that the guide deems dangerous for the integrity of the group.

Tour Value:

Itineraries with dates that are already scheduled:
To guarantee the quality of the experience and safety, we work with a ratio of 1 guide for up to 4 people . Therefore, when larger groups are formed, we hire another support guide. This is an international benchmark for quality and safety . We want to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy moments of intimacy with nature and the tranquility that only adequate safety provides.

4-day hike:
R$ 2,295 per person

Itineraries outside of scheduled dates:
If your desired date is not currently available, we can offer an option on a date of your choosing. We will then seek other interested parties to form a group, and the price will be determined based on the number of confirmed participants by the itinerary date, considering the type of itinerary (3, 4, or 5 days).

Group of 4 people: R$ 2,100 per person
Group of 3 people:
R$ 2,250 per person
Group of 2 people:
R$ 2,200 per person
1 person ( exclusive guide ):
R$ 3,200

In all cases, if other people join the group, the price automatically adjusts to the lowest possible value. We at Chapada Velha strive to offer the best possible experience, and for that, a balanced group of people is essential. Years of experience have shown that very large groups compromise the quality of the tour, impoverish the relationship with the guide, and make it more difficult to appreciate the local flora and fauna.

comments:
Never underestimate the sun in the region. As much as you feel willing or resistant to hot temperatures, the sun of the arid tropical climate, of which the cerrado is a part, is very intense when we are exposed to it for many hours. Along with this, drink plenty of water as our climate zone quickly leads to dehydration.
The fauna and flora of the cerrado are often very delicate and tiny, so pay attention to the smallest details, as you will be surprised by the biological diversity of the region.
