  • Cachoeira da Velha Falls

    The largest waterfall of Jalapão, it is the symbol of power of a region rich in waters. 20 meters wide and falling from a small canyon, Cachoeira da Velha Waterfalls represent the exuberance and strength of Jalapão’s nature.
  • Cachoeira do Formiga Waterfall

    A small waterfall that forms a green-emerald pool with white sand in the bottom. All of this surrounded by an exuberant vegetation of tall trees, ferns, and native palm trees. Welcome to the Cachoeira do Formiga Waterfall!
  • Dunes

    One of the surprises of the different scenarios that form Jalapão are the golden sand dunes that reach up to 30 meters high and are in constant movement, guided by the wind. Because of the Dunes, some call this true paradise “Jalapão Desert”.
  • Fervedouro

    In the transparent waters of Fervedouro you will get to know the real sensation of lightness. It is impossible to submerge there. No use trying to jump or dive. You can never touch the bottom. This because Fervedouro is an underground spring, with waters that lift the swimmer.
  • Golden Grass

    Fond only in the Jalapão valley, the beautiful and exotic golden grass has charmed the world in the form of handcrafts.
  • Mumbuca Village

    In your tour through the Jalapão valley it is worth reserving time to visit a traditional village, Mumbuca, 35 km away from the city of Mateiros.
  • Rafting

    Every adventurer who goes to Jalapão has a certain destination: rafting on the Rio Novo rapids. But you need not be experienced or even able to swim to face the sometimes turbulent, sometimes calm waters.
  • Serra do Espírito Santo Mountain

    Postcard of the region, Espírito Santo Mountain is an imposing rise, which through the process of erosion (rain and winds), creates the dunes that are formed at its feet.
