Atlantic Rainforest Expedition: Trek to the Most Remote Beach of Ilha Grande

Be ready to explore the dense Atlantic Rainforest on one of Brazil’s most wild and breathtaking islands. In this trekking expedition, we cross remote jungle paths, pass through a historic old village, visit two stunning beaches, cross rivers, and hike deep into lush tropical forest filled with history, stories, and culture.

This is a 36 km round-trip trail leading to one of the most isolated beaches on the island — a place where fewer than 10 people live, with a simple campsite and no regular electricity. Power and internet are available only when solar panels and generators allow. The gorgeous river is one of the highlights of the journey, and the entire location feels like a natural retreat for body, mind, and soul. 

To complete this unforgettable experience, the final three hours of the return hike take place at night — under a breathtaking sky full of stars, surrounded by the powerful sounds of the forest. Raw. Intense. Transformative.
