Beskrivning
Explore Chapada Diamantina from Salvador: caves and blue grottoes, sunset on Morro do Pai Inácio and a hike to the top of the Fumaça waterfall, with 3 nights at Hotel de Lençóis.
Discover the table mountains, caves and waterfalls of Chapada Diamantina National Park on a 4-day trip from Salvador, based in the colonial diamond-mining town of Lençóis.
On day 1, travel by air-conditioned bus from Salvador to Lençóis, about 7 hours through the Bahia countryside, and check in at Hotel de Lençóis in the early afternoon.
On day 2, visit the Lapa Doce cave with a specialist guide, walking through huge chambers full of stalactites and stalagmites. Then relax at Fazenda Pratinha, a green oasis with a crystal-clear stream and the Blue Grotto, where you can also snorkel inside the Pratinha cave (optional, paid on site). End the day with a short climb up Morro do Pai Inácio, the most famous viewpoint in the park, to watch the sunset over the plateau.
On day 3, drive to Vale do Capão and hike across the high plateau to the top of the Fumaça waterfall, which drops about 380 meters into a deep canyon. Lie down at the edge of the cliff for the view into the valley before returning on the same trail.
On day 4, take the morning bus back to Salvador, arriving in the early afternoon.
Excursions are shared with other travelers and led by local guides. Brasil Planet, a local tour operator, supports you throughout the trip.
