Itinerary
The tour will start in Lençóis from your hotel. The group will set off after breakfast at about 8:30 or 9:00am for Capão Valley where you will begin the 6km (3.75 mile) hike to the top of Fumaça Waterfall. It is considered the highest waterfall in Brazil with a free fall of 360 meters (1170 feet). At certain times of the year, when there is not much water, the water falls but does not reach the ground because the strong winds blow it back up. Hence the name “Fumaça”, which in Portuguese means smoke. There are also beautiful rainbows to be seen. On the way back, you will have a wonderful view of “Morrão” mountain. After this we will go to Riachinho Waterfall where it is possible to go for a swim and get your energy back after the nice walk. Afterwards, it'll be time to head back to Lençóis for the end of the tour.

About Lençóis
Lençóis is a former diamond-mining town in Bahia and the main gateway to Chapada Diamantina National Park, with colonial streets and waterfalls close by.
Lençóis lies in the Chapada Diamantina, a highland of flat-topped hills, canyons and waterfalls in the interior of Bahia. Diamonds were found in the highlands in the 1840s, and the town prospered; its colonial houses with colourful doors and shutters, and a river running through the centre, recall that boom. Today it is the main base for visits to Chapada Diamantina National Park.
