Day Trip to the Itaimbezinho Canyon

We'll start this excursion by picking you up from your hotel in Caxias do Sul at 9 am. Our destination is Cambará do Sul, a gateway to the Parados da Serra National Park.

Our first stop will be at the Itaimbezinho Canyon, a highlight of the park. Itaimbezinho means "sharp stone" in Tupi-Guarani and stretches for nearly 6 kilometers (3.75 miles).

The adventure begins with a three-hour hike along the Vortex Trail, offering various viewpoints of the canyon and passing through an Araucaria forest to discover local plant life.

After the Vortex Trail, we'll take a break before continuing with the 30-minute Cotovelo Trail. You'll then have one hour of free time in Cambará do Sul to enjoy lunch at a local restaurant.

At the end of the day, we will return to Caxias do Sul, concluding the tour at 7:30 pm, with drop-off at your hotel.
