ITINERARY
It may be subject to changes due to weather conditions or any force majeure factors deemed important by the organizers.
DAY 1 – MURITIBA PARK
We can start at any time between 8:00 AM and 2:00 PM, as the tour lasts between 4 and 5 hours. The trail begins from the Tourist Service Center (CAT), where we can already have a beautiful panorama of the route we will take. Our first stop will be in 5 minutes at the Natural Pools of Serrano, where we can see conglomerates polished by the action of water, as well as pools with small refreshing waterfalls. After a 15-minute walk, we will be at the maze of the Salão das Areias Coloridas, where the stones have undergone a process of infiltration (weathering) that makes them porous and sandy. The place is quite unique and interesting due to its geological formation.
After leaving the maze, we will walk for another 15 minutes to the Halley Pool, where we can take a great bath and play with the colored clays that exist there due to the igneous rocks that surfaced by the pool. After the bath, we will walk for 20 minutes to the Primavera Waterfall, which is one of the tributaries of the Lençóis River, the same one we crossed at Serrano.
Our next stop will be at Paraíso Pool, another stop for bathing in shallow waters and a small waterfall. From there, we will walk for another 10 minutes to the Lençóis Viewpoint. There, we can see the entire city and a flat horizon that seems to be infinite. After a 15-minute descent, we will reach Cachoeirinha. As the name suggests, it is a small waterfall with crystal clear waters that is also a tributary of the Lençóis River.

After a refreshing waterfall bath, we will return to the car and head towards the Mucugêzinho Bathing Area to access the Devil’s Pool, a huge natural pool of dark and cold waters. We will drive 28 km more and walk for 15 minutes to the pool. We will stay in the pool until 4:00 PM, when we will leave for our next destination.
After another 5 km by car, we will take a 300-meter walk lasting about 20 minutes to the top of Father Inácio Hill, where the guide will tell the legend that gives the place its name. In addition, we will have a unique view from the top of the hill.
