Chapada dos Veadeiros is a place of rich biodiversity and great mysticism. It is a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site and is known for its ancient rock formations, quartz crystals, and the unique energy attributed to it. In addition, there are traces of ancestral cultures, and it is a center for esoteric studies and ufology. It is a place where nature and spirituality come together.
The best time to visit is during the dry season, from May to September, as rainfall is scarce and the trails are more accessible and safer. During the rainy season (October to April), the waterfalls have a stronger flow, but some areas may be slippery or closed. A great time to experience all of this is from October to April!
Unfortunately, most of the trails in Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park are difficult and are not adapted for people with reduced mobility. However, there are some more accessible areas near the entrance or a few viewpoints they can enjoy. It is recommended to contact the park administration directly (+55 62 3611-2101) for detailed information about available options. For more information.
Near the park, you have the towns of Alto Paraíso de Goiás, Cavalcante, and São Jorge, which offer guesthouses, restaurants, and local crafts.

Of course! Always bring sunscreen, a hat, insect repellent, and plenty of water. Wear comfortable, suitable walking shoes. Don’t forget a rain jacket during the rainy season.
