Brazil’s Golden Desert of Adventure
Wild, remote, and utterly breathtaking, Jalapão is one of Brazil’s most spectacular hidden treasures. Located in the heart of Tocantins, this vast region is a land of golden sand dunes, crystal-clear springs, towering plateaus, and untouched natural beauty, perfect for travelers in search of adventure and serenity far off the beaten path.
Why Visit?
Jalapão is a surreal landscape where the Cerrado biome reveals its most dramatic forms. One moment you’re hiking across orange sand dunes, the next you’re floating effortlessly in a fervedouro, natural springs with crystal-clear, pressurized water so buoyant, you can’t sink. These unique phenomena, like Fervedouro do Ceiça and Fervedouro Bela Vista, are unlike anything else in Brazil.
The Vibe
Jalapão is raw, peaceful, and full of wonder. It’s a place to disconnect from the modern world and reconnect with nature at its purest. Whether you’re exploring dramatic landscapes, swimming in secret springs, or camping under a sky full of stars, Jalapão offers an adventure that’s both grounding and unforgettable.
