Upon reaching the Great Lençóis Maranhenses, the open‑air 4x4 truck stops and our adventure begins with the challenge of climbing a very steep dune approximately 80 m in length or ascending a staircase of about 144 steps. After this initial effort, the required physical exertion diminishes considerably. At the top we are rewarded with a panoramic view of the Lençóis Maranhenses — simply stunning. You will be able to walk among the lagoons and refresh in their crystalline waters, and the first dune offers an incredible vantage for sunset — a true spectacle of nature. Afterwards we return to Barreirinhas.
