Located in the center of the state of Bahia, 400 km from Salvador, and boasting one of the most beautiful landscapes in Brazil, the Chapada Diamantina has become an unmissable destination.

There are hundreds of waterfalls, wells, caves and caverns with unique rock formations, hills, rivers, valleys and trails, most of which are protected by the 152,000-hectare Chapada Diamantina National Park.

It offers incredible scenery for hiking and trekking, as well as other adventure activities. The Lapão Cave is the largest quartz cave in the Americas and is an excellent visit for those with abseiling experience. The cave lakes are also impressive in this region, with Poço Encantado standing out as incredibly blue and transparent. The 400m-high Cachoeira da Fumaça is one of the highest in Brazil, but the volume of water is not enough to keep it liquid all the way to the bottom, forming a mysterious smoke effect just before it reaches the ground.

In addition to the imposing natural attractions, the Chapada preserves historic towns linked to the diamond cycle and a very interesting culture, full of legends and stories. By staying a few nights in one of the charming hotels in Lençóis, the gateway to the Chapada Diamantina, you can take advantage of the walks and hikes to the nearby waterfalls and caves, enjoying the beautiful scenery; another option is to take part in one of our ecological itineraries, visiting different areas of the Chapada Diamantina.
