體驗活動
Rafting and night time rafting is done in the only waterfall-like segment of high Pardo River, in a 7-km distance alternating backwaters and rapids. These are level II and III rapids, but there is one level V rapid on the way named Polish Corridor. The downsail time is about 2½ hours. Rafting here is very safe because the access road runs alongside the river and the water level is constant all year long. Cross Buoy is an original Brazilian activity, which consists in going down the river in individual mini-inflatable boats. Since it is done in the same waterfall-like segment of the river, it requires considerable physical effort. Fuga Trekking is on the dry stream bead of Pardo River over rocks, always in contact with water and the woods. Among the most interesting lakes on the way is the Areião, which is a great opportunity for refreshment. Over the lake near the Old Waterworks the “Tirolesa” takes place. It consists of an approximately 60-m-long air cable with pulleys stretched 8 meters over the river and riding it is a great adventure. Mountain trekking done on the Pontal Mount in the Guerrinha. It’s one of the highest points of the city at 1277 m. It offers a magnificent view to the Rio Pardo Valley. On the top of the mountain there is a small church built in the 17th century by slaves. Rappel is an optional activity, done on a ca. 20-m-high rock on the original track. Cascading is rappel over only one waterfall. This activity takes place over the “Cubatão” Waterfall, 26 km from town and is a whole-day activity. In the morning, a sort of training is carried on over the Bela Vista Rock at a 12-m-height. The group then goes to the Cubatão Waterfall and glides down as often as possible. Canyoning is rappeling over a sequence of waterfalls. This activity takes place on the Fortaleza Mountain in a very beautiful forest area (the primary Atlantic Forest), over 4 waterfalls between 15 and 70 m high. Horse Riding takes place at the Macuco Ranch and is an excellent
