The day begins with magnificent views of the Serra do Esbarrancado mountain walls and trail starting at the Rampa do Beco, an ancient path from the mines used until today by Pati natives, following by the Gerais do Rio Preto to Mirante do Pati, with a breathtaking overview. Trekking goes towards the end of the Pati Valley over the mountains to Cachoeirão (above the waterfall), Chapada Diamantina’s second largest waterfall.

After a stop for a snack, the itinerary goes down to the first house / support point, ending the day with a rich meal, bath and overnight.

The best walking clothes are long tactel pants and a long sleeves T-shirt.

Pé no Mato has a complete store of trail equipment such as tents, boots, canteens, lanterns, clothing, backpacks, fanny packs, hats etc. Do not buy unnecessary equipment.

Lodging in the homes of Pati residents:

Inside the Pati Valley, we have the natives’ homes that provide a good home-cooked meal and a good night’s sleep. Despite the simplicity of this type of accommodation, the stay and contact with Patí residents make this trip even more special.

In addition, these points of support become at night a meeting point for people from all over the world sharing their experiences.

Due to the small number of houses in Pati (10), reservations for these houses must be made in advance.

João da Igrejinha, Dona Maria and Seu Wilson, Dona Raquel, Dona Lea, Jailson and Agnelo, are located between Upper and Middle Pati Valley.

Seu Eduardo, Joia and Antonio are located in Lower Pati.

“Pé no Mato recommends all the support options listed above, both regarding sleeping on good mattresses, as well as well prepared and full meals. Besides, it’s always nice to spend a night prospating with these loving people. ”
