Itinerary
6h30 / 7h00: Departure from the urban area of the city of São Paulo. We will pass to pick you up at the meeting points and proceed to this impressive preserved park about 2:30 hours towards the extreme end of the city of São Paulo
10h00: We leave the house of Mrs.Mara and enter in an area of Atlantic forest walking down on a more open trail that narrows along increasing the level of difficulty.
10h20: We go through an old historic charcoal kiln, where we can find different arachnids and take photos inside it.
11h00: We get to the first of the five waterfalls on the trail, the calm and refreshing “Oasis Waterfall”. Stop for photos and take a breath for the most intense part of the experience.
12.00: We arrive at the “tower belvedere”, an elevated area with a magnificent view of the dense Atlantic forest spanning along the vastness of the valleys. By this time you should feel immersed in an unique and remote region.
12:30: Arrival at the three waterfalls of the “Ray of the Sun”, stop for the bath, photos and snacks. Bring swimsuits along so that you can splash around.
14h00: Beginning of the return.
15h00: We take a detour from the trail to a last waterfall, the “Sagui waterfall”.
16h00: Arrival at Mrs.Mara's house for lunch. Come on in and relax enjoying a simple, but delicious home-cooked food with friendly service in a casual setting.
17h20: After having such an adventurous day, head back for drop-off at your place. On the journey back, we’ll cater a conversation to your interests and our expertise.
20h00: Estimated arrival time.

Traveler reviews
Fantastic hike in the forest
Fantastic hiking trip in the forest, first time im Brazil and couldn’t have had a better company. Luiz was a guide that really had the passion you are looking for. Would very much recommend both trip and company
Breathtaking Nature, Waterfalls and history
This hike through the southern Atlantic Rainforest was incredible! Unbelievable views, countless native plants, birds, butterflies, 5 breathtaking waterfalls and a tour guide so knowledgeable and friendly make it hard to believe this experience was even real at the end of the day. The food at Miss Mara’s farm was really tasty and traditional and in a very welcoming atmosphere. We can highly recommend this tour and are overwhelmed and thankful by/for everything we got to experience today.
