When to go

Journey along the Caminho do Oouro, a well preserved trail crossing through the lush Atlantic Forest. Use bikes or even horses to discover the dense jungle and explore deeper, or uncover the winding trail on foot. This trail was laid by slaves in colonial times and as you continue your journey, learn about this region’s complex history before discovering towering waterfalls shaded by swaying fig trees.

For something a little more laid back, enjoy a day spent luxuriating in a spa or playing a round of golf at the local course.
