Gramado Trip Overview
The beauty of this region is unique. The Canyons of Cambará do Sul are an unmissable destination! Located on the border between the state of Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, in the Campos de Cima da Serra region, the canyons are uniquely beautiful, with walls that reach 900m in height. From there you can see the Atlantic Ocean, some cities on the north coast of RS and also SC. The basaltic formations give the exact dimension of all geological events that took place millions of years ago.
The hikes we will do will be at a leisurely pace, the trails have a low degree of difficulty and the landscapes are stunning: waterfalls, rivers, the unevenness of the canyons and fields as far as the eye can see. The exuberant Atlantic Forest with Araucaria forests and a very rich fauna make these walks an exercise in peace and incredible reconnection.
