Are you hungry for adventure? Satisfy your cravings with a trekking experience in the Serra da Cantareira mountains. Plus, there are unbeatable views of Sao Paulo!
Description
In the morning, we'll leave Sao Paulo and set out on a 30-minute bus journey towards the north of the city, where we'll enter the Cantareira State Park, an over 7,900-hectare natural reserve.
Once we're among the Serra da Cantareira mountains, we'll stop to learn about the park's history, as it acted as a route for traders between Sao Paulo and other regions in Brazil during the 15th and 16th centuries.
Then, our adventure will begin. The first stage is a 1.5-km section of the Macuco Trail, where we'll admire the region's flora and fauna as we make our way to the Cantareira dam, which provides Sao Paulo with its water.
We'll continue for 3.5 km along the Waterfall Trail, crossing the River Engordador where we'll have the option to take a refreshing dip. Finally, we'll arrive at Casa da Bomba, which is now considered historic heritage.
Before returning to Sao Paulo, you'll have 45 minutes of free time to enjoy the natural beauty and take photos of the scenery.
Hotel pickup
This trekking experience includes hotel pick-up from hotels within a 4-mile (6 km) radius of Praça da Sé. If you're staying in another area of São Paulo, we'll meet you at 2355 Paulista Avenue.
