Enhance your visit to Caxias do Sul with an excursion to the impressive Fortaleza and Itaimbezinho canyons, where you will encounter breathtaking landscapes. Experience a day fully immersed in the pristine beauty of Brazilian nature!
Trip Details
Your journey begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Caxias do Sul at the designated time, and we'll make our way to Cambará do Sul. Upon arrival, you will have some free time for breakfast at your leisure, allowing you to prepare for the exciting adventures that await.
The first destination is the awe-inspiring Fortaleza Canyon. Here, a scenic hike awaits where you will explore significant landmarks such as the Mirante viewpoint, the intriguing rock formation known as Pedra do Segredo, and the picturesque Trilha do Tigre Preto. The mesmerizing views of the canyon are sure to captivate you!
After this, we will return to Cambará do Sul for a well-earned break. During this downtime, you may choose to enjoy a buffet lunch featuring local campeira cuisine at the Costaneira Restaurant, at your own expense.
Refreshed and revitalized, our next stop will be the Aparados da Serra National Park to explore the Itaimbezinho Canyon. Here, we will embark on the Vértice Trail, an accessible pathway that spans approximately 3 hours. Along the way, we will pause at multiple viewpoints that provide a spectacular sense of openness near the towering cliffs. At the end of the trek, we will take a moment to review the park model, which offers insights into the area's geography.
For a grand finale, we will take on the Cotovelo Trail. This easy 30-minute excursion allows us to admire the canyon waterfalls from various perspectives. Be sure to have your cameras ready to capture the beauty!
At the conclusion of this 11.5-hour adventure, we will return and drop you off at your accommodation.
