Chapada Diamantina
Bahia's rock plateau region of Chapada Diamantina is located around 420 km west of the state's capital, Salvador. The best place of departure to visit the Chapada is the quiet and charming town of Lencois. This hiker's paradise is made up of mountains and valleys and has an abundance of caves, waterfalls and underground lakes. Treks can last from one hour to three days. The trail from Lencois to Vale do Paty is considered one of the region's most beautiful, passing by the town of Capao with has one of Brazil's highest waterfall, at 422 meters. One of region's most famous caves is Poco Encantado, around 60 meters deep, with clear waters which are given a turquoise appearance from the sun during the months of June to August. Among the region's other attractions are the peak of Morro do Pai Inacio and the Lapa Doce cave, one of the longest in the area running over 800 meters.
