Tour Overview

The Juatinga Crossing is one of the most beautiful crossings in Brazil. You will have the experience of walking through the Reserve's lush Atlantic Forest, a forest that is as well preserved as few places in Brazil. During the crossing we will visit desert and paradisiacal beaches, incredible waterfalls and peaks with wonderful views. And the best thing is that you only need a small backpack with your clothes because we sleep and eat in native homes, so you can get to know the Caiçara culture of the Reserve's natives up close.
