Golden tip: go with a guide on the trails
For Lagoinha do Leste, Rio Vermelho, and other trails with steep/slippery sections, we strongly recommend hiring a local guide. It greatly improves safety, navigation, weather awareness, and decision-making—especially after rain.
For hikes and waterfalls, especially the more “wild” ones or those with steep stretches, going with a local guide is highly recommended due to: fast-changing weather slippery rocks (especially after rain) trail forks and low/no cell signal areas river/current risks Local Guide (sent before check-in)
A few days before check-in, we send a local guide with restaurant recommendations and suggested nearby tours and attractions.

In the event that the parents or the legal guardian, as applicable, cannot or are unwilling to give this authorisation, a judicial authorisation is required. People who intend to travel to Brazil with children must consult with the Brazilian consulate before travelling for more information.
