This delightful trail takes about four (4) hours, and requires a little more effort than the others we have at the Pousada. A good shoe (or boot-specific), water to drink and a stick are the key to the ride to be super nice. It has no steep climbs, but long lasting. The Pousada main house is 1000m high and this track reaches 1500 meters (so just imagine the panorama we have ...). Each step has its merit. The amount of ferns is amazing. The birds follow us and, if we go silently, Guans families come in to make a brief visit. We find water to refresh us and quench our thirst (in the rainy season, even a river is formed on our way). The trees are already higher than the Cipo Trail, including the one that gave the name of this beautiful ride: a huge jequitibá - estimated to have 40 meters high! Ideal for nature lovers.
