Trekking Incrível Lençóis Maranhenses

Trekking Through the Surreal Beauty of Lençóis Maranhenses, Brazil

Imagine walking across a desert that’s not dry—but alive. The Lençóis Maranhenses National Park in northeastern Brazil is a place where nature defies logic: endless golden sand dunes stretch as far as the eye can see, interrupted by crystal-clear freshwater lagoons that shimmer in shades of turquoise and emerald.

This isn’t just a hike—it’s a journey through a living dreamscape. Over the course of several days, trekkers traverse remote oases like Baixa Grande and Queimada dos Britos, sleep in rustic villages, and bathe in pristine lagoons under a sky ablaze with stars. The terrain shifts constantly, sculpted by wind and rain, making each step feel like the first.

You’ll cover up to 60 kilometers on foot, navigating dunes that rise up to 40 meters high. The reward? Sunsets that set the sand on fire, the silence of untouched nature, and the warmth of local communities who welcome travelers with home-cooked meals and heartfelt stories.
