Miner´s Trek Chapada Diamantina

Miner´s Trek Chapada Diamantina

This was the first trekking developed by Extreme EcoAventure, linking old miner´s ways which were abandoned, passing through up to 7 waterfalls in 5 days. It was developed by the agency´s staff and they are the only ones who knows all the way because some links between trails were made by them. We can also do it in 3 or 4 days, adapting the trek according to the travalers avaliables dates.

All 3 options of the Miner´s Trek Chapada Diamantina are Detailed bellow:

3 days:

1st day: We leave Lençóis by a 4×4 car in a 8km off road. We go up on the Serra do Bode till the Córrego Piçarras and cross a small hill that separates this streamlet and the Rio Capivari. We drop our backpackers and walk to see the top of Capivari´s Waterfall. Than we go down to see it´s bottom. We swim, have lunch and go up again till our backpackers. Get them and walk more 40 minutes- 1 hour to the Cachoeira do Poção do Capivari, where we camp.
2nd day: We leave the backpackers and go up the Capivari´s River with cameras and supply for about 2 hours to reach the Cachoeira da Mixila, which was found by Marcos Cauduro (agency´s director) in 2004 and now is one of the most demanded of Chapada. We come back on the same way till the camping get the things on the camping and go to Cachoeira das Lajes where we sleep.
