Canyons & Coastline Escape: Living the Southern Brazilian Way - Rio Grande do Sul Edition
Package Details
Experience the striking contrasts of Rio Grande do Sul, where monumental canyons rise over misty highlands and the coastline unveils Brazil’s only seaside cliffs. This journey captures the soul of the gaúcho spirit—authentic, warm, and deeply connected to nature. From rugged mountain landscapes to golden beaches shaped by the Atlantic winds, this escape blends adventure, culture, and the refined simplicity of southern Brazilian life.
What You Should Know About the Region
Rio Grande do Sul offers some of the country’s most impressive natural settings. In Cambará do Sul, the towering canyons of Itaimbezinho and Fortaleza reveal dramatic walls covered by araucaria forests and rolling fields of the Campos de Cima da Serra. Misty mornings, scenic trails, and sweeping viewpoints set the tone for days filled with exploration.
Along the coast, Torres stands out as a rare gem: the only place in Brazil where volcanic cliffs meet the sea, creating a unique backdrop for paragliding, surfing, and leisurely seaside walks. Small fishing communities, preserved dunes, and a slower coastal rhythm make the region feel both intimate and wild. This combination of canyonlands and coastline defines the southernmost Brazilian experience.
Local Cuisine
The gastronomy of Rio Grande do Sul is rooted in tradition, generosity, and the iconic flavors of the gaúcho culture. Expect classic churrasco grilled slowly over embers, served with chimichurri and regional sides. Mountain regions offer cozy colonial recipes, homemade pastas, smoked meats, and artisanal cheeses. On the coast, fresh seafood—shrimp, fish, oysters—is enjoyed in simple beachfront restaurants where the ocean breeze enhances every bite. Regional wines and sparkling wines from the highlands complement the experience, highlighting the craftsmanship of southern producers.
