Description

Brazil is a magnificent country. Each region has its very unique charm and amazing spots to visits. And it is in Chapada Diamantina in Bahía, where we can find one of Brazil’s most fantastic treasures: the Mosquito Waterfall.

This wonderful trip begins after a 25 minute drive towards the Mosquito Waterfall. It will be a pleasant drive with enchanting sceneries. Thereon, we’ll reach the beginning of a marvellous 50 minute trekking path.

We’ll first get to admire the waterfall above us. Then, we’ll cross the river, to later start a 30 minute descent into the canyon. And, once we reach the bottom of the canyon, we’ll jump into its refreshing waters. Due to the current of the river and waterfall, the canyon offers a strong and relaxing natural hydro massage.

After refreshing ourselves, our adventure continues driving to Poço Azul or Blue Well in english. Here, we’ll decide if we take a well deserved break for lunch, or if we venture inside this spectacular well.

Please note that one of our main goals aside from keeping you safe, and ensuring your fun, is to contribute towards the preservation of the places we visit. Therefore, participants must take a quick shower to rinse off any sunscreen or other products, along with natural body oils before soaking inside the well. Upon completion, we’ll receive a life jacket and snorkeling equipment. After that, we’ll climb a wooden ladder to reach a deck, where we’ll find a small staircase which will lead us into the mesmerizing blue water.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
