Top 9 Caves 브라질

Lapinha Cave is a sandstone cave in Castelo Hill, in the heart of the Pati Valley, in Chapada Diamantina. Access requires a steep climb up the hill's trail, rewarded with a dark passage through the cave and viewpoints at the top offering expansive views of the surrounding valleys and cliffs. The humid environment, slippery sections, and narrow passages necessitate a flashlight, grippy footwear, and extra caution.

The Grotta dos Morcegos (Cave of the Bats), in Tijuca National Park, is a small cavern hidden among the vegetation, ideal as a curious and refreshing stop during a hike in the area. Access is usually easy, although it can be a bit damp and the rocks inside are slippery. It's a brief but interesting stop within this jungle environment; wear shoes with good grip and bring a flashlight if you want to explore it safely.

The floor of the Colored Sand Rooms (Salões de Areias Coloridas) is covered with various shades of sand. The sand is also sold there in bottles as souvenirs. It's very narrow between the rocks and stones. There are no signs or reliable GPS reception. You shouldn't go there without a guide, as you'll probably get lost.

You can't swim in Poco Encantado. There's only a 40-minute tour, during which the guide tells a bit about the history and you can have your photo taken with him in front of the blue water. Unfortunately, the guide only speaks Brazilian.

The place is abandoned, it's not worth going, the bush is too tall.

The hike from Lencois to the cave entrance takes about 1 hour 30 minutes.

Way to Gruta do Lapao. To get to the cave entrance, you have to climb down the narrow path between the rocks above the cave. After about 25 minutes you will reach an underground river in the cave. This part of the tour is not recorded as there is no GPS signal in the cave. Be sure to take a flashlight with you.

Gruta da Pratinha and the Blue Grotto are located on private property. Entrance to the Pratinha Farm costs 40 real per person. The blue cave is best visited when the sun shines in the cave to see the water turn blue.
