Itaúba Reservoir Day Trip + Boat Ride

On this day trip to the Itaúba reservoir, we will explore the landscape around this hydroelectric power plant on a boat ride.

Description

At the indicated time, we will meet at the Termas Romanas Recanto Maestro. Here, we will board our vehicle for an 80 km (50 mile) journey to the dock at the Itaúba reservoir, significant for the development of Rio Grande do Sul.

Upon arrival at the port near the hydroelectric power plant, we will embark on a 10 km (6.2 miles) boat ride to the Alagüe cliffs, known for their beauty.

During the boat ride, we will navigate the emerald waters of the reservoir, admire the Estrela and Benzedura waterfalls, and view the Butucatu geological formation, a remnant of the ancient continent of Gondwana.

We will appreciate the landscape and learn about local flora and fauna. Additionally, stories about the area will be shared, including the legend of the farmer who paid his workers by pushing them into the water.

Afterward, we will return to the dock, board our vehicle, and travel back to Restinga Sêca, concluding the activity approximately 5.5 hours after starting.
