Amongst the most popular attractions is the Cachoeira da Velha, an enormous waterfall approximately 100 meters wide and 15 meters high; the orange Dunes with its almost 40 meters, one of Jalapão’s most unique sceneries; and the small towns of Mumbuca and Prata, communities made by descendants of escaped slaves, where it is possible to visit and live the local culture. Also, there are Serra do Espírito Santo, a rock formation where it is possible to enjoy the native nature; Cachoeira da Formiga, a charming waterfall of emerald waters; and the Fervedouros (Boilers), with their transparent waters where people can float. This region has been protected with the creation of parks, conservation units, and Environmental Protection Areas, showing concern with the preservation of this important natural patrimony. You will have the opportunity to visit several natural attractions and have cultural experiences. Explore the Jalapão State Park region on this adventure through the Brazilian Cerrado.

All the places that I visited were amazing, but among them, I particularly liked Ibera wetland (although getting there in a rainy day was extremely tough). It was such an unique ecosystem with a large variety of animals, where floating marsh creates different scenery everyday in a huge lagoon, which was absolutely unforgettable. I found this tour company to be extremely organized and helpful from the beginning to the end, and tour coordinators were always available. I would like to convey my gratitude here. Thank you very much!!
