The Camurugipe Reserve is a sanctuary for the most important tracts of first-growth Atlantic rainforest on Bahia’s north shore. Centuries-old trees such as jacarandás, ingá-açus and sucupiras coexist with sloths, peccaries and parrots. We will begin the tour with a 20-minute drive along the Green Line towards the village of Malhadas.
From there, we continue on dirt roads in 4x4 vehicles to the Camurugipe Reserve. After journeying through a stretch of rainforest in our 4x4s, we will take a 15-minute hike along trails through the forest to the crystal-clear waters of the Açu River.
On the way you will be enchanted by the size of the trees and their giant vines, the bromeliads and fern palms that grow everywhere as well as the innumerable peculiarities of this unique ecosystem that our environmentalist guide will help you to discover. At the river the chance to take a refreshing dip cannot be missed. With luck, we may even see a sloth climbing through the tree canopy. Return to hotel.
