Special Places in Nature to Visit in Brazil



Brazil is a big country with many natural parks to visit. If you like to see awesome landscapes or you love adventure, Brazil is the perfect country for your vacation. Here are three interesting and unique sites to appreciate.


Lençois Maranhences



The Lençois Maranhences is a gigantic area formed by white sand dunes interspersed with blue lagoons supplied by rainwater. Few other landscapes are as impactful as the vision of this "wet desert". Every day there are 4 × 4 traction cars full of tourists taking them to the lagoons, which is the best way to see them.
The scenery is dominated by endless dunes and freshwater lagoons. The large formations of sand reach up to 40 m in height and are generated by the action of the winds that constantly blow from the sea. The continent-wide advance reaches 50 km and extends for about 70 km of deserted beaches.
You can stay in a typical local hostel in the city of Barreirinhas or in a resort with all the amenities. The best period to visit is between June and September when the lagoons are filled with more water.

Iguazu Falls

These falls are located on the border of three countries: Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay. There are two options to see the Iguazu Falls: the Brazilian or the Argentinean side. On the Brazilian side, we have the Foz do Iguaçu city.
Around the falls there is the Iguaçu National Park that preserves the original habitat including the exuberant vegetation of the subtropical jungle. There are an average of 1.3 million liters per second in no less than 275 falls of water that compose the complex of falls in this world heritage site considered the biggest falls in the world.

Aparados da Serra National Park

This park is located in the south of Brazil between the states Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina.
The biggest attraction here is the Itaimbezinho Canyon. With a depth of up to 700 m, vertical walls and a narrow crevice, it is one of the largest canyons of the Americas. In addition, it has rocky walls adorned with the lush green of the Atlantic Forest.
There are three trails open to the public, with the trail of Vértice and Cotovelo being the main attractions. Some canyons require a special guide to explore.
