Opis
Walk the historic Golden Route in Paraty on a guided hike. Learn about the trail's history, walk on 300-year-old stone pavement, and discover the native flora and fauna of the Atlantic Forest.
Begin your experience with a historical context about the creation of the Golden Route, Paraty as a strategic colonial port, and how gold shaped the region’s architecture, culture, and economy.
Next, enter the Atlantic Forest and begin your hike inside the Serra da Bocaina National Park. Learn about the native Brazilian flora, birds, insects, and wildlife, as well as the environmental preservation of the Atlantic Forest biome.
The highlight of the tour is walking on the exact stones built in the colonial period, hand-carved and fitted by enslaved workers. Learn about the engineering designed to drain rainwater and see marks from centuries of horses and mule caravans.
During the hike, hear stories about gold caravans traveling for weeks through the mountains, smugglers and thieves hiding in the forest, European travelers who described the trail in old diaries, the decline of gold and the rise of coffee in the region, and local legends and surprising historical facts.
Depending on the group’s pace, the tour includes small viewpoints overlooking the forest, shaded resting points, historic ruins and natural formations, and photo stops on iconic stone sections.
Finish the tour near the urban part of the Golden Route. Listen to final explanations, including fun historical curiosities, tips on what to explore next in Paraty, and suggestions of other cultural attractions.
