Located about three hours north of Brasilia, the capital of Brazil, Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park is a captivating territory of incomparable wildlife and lush plant life. The breathtaking wilderness unique to central Brazil and encompassing the park is an extraordinary example of how profound its natural beauty is in both size and scope.

And that is precisely what this program will do! You will enjoy rugged and exotic mountain biking on demanding uphill paths and coast down gorgeous nature-filled tracks. You will come across a number of impressive waterfalls, one of the most notable features of Chapada dos Veadeiros. From dirt roads on the outskirts of the park to its single-track splendor within, you have the option to visit great spots like Carioquinhas Falls and Santa Barbara Falls. All of the falls are spectacular.

Along with amazing falls, you have an opportunity to see endemic species on a long list of invaluable biodiversity. The animals that might cross your path include capybaras, toucans, and armadillos, among many others. The cerrado of Brazil is just as evocative as the rocks, trees, and falls. The open pasture is a testament to the age of the rock formations, which are known as some of the oldest geological specimens on Earth.
