For centuries, Brazil has symbolised the great escape into a primordial, tropical paradise, igniting the Western imagination like no other South American country. From the sophisticated pleasures and carnival city of Rio de Janeiro to the immensity of the dark Amazon, Brazil is a country of mythic proportions. All the while, the people of Brazil delight visitors with their energy, natural passion and culture.
This stunning 100km trekking challenge is on a mixture of jeep tracks, narrow jungle trails and on the principal path through the park, which is known as the Trilha do Oura, or the Gold Trail which was originally built to transport gold to the coast. The area is one of a real wilderness with spectacular biodiversity, rocky outcrop mountains with hidden waterfalls and rainforest pools. Our challenge finishes at the famous carnival city of Rio de Janeiro for a celebration party not to be forgotten!
