01.Mountain biking, Canoeing, Marimbus Wetlands & the Roncador river
We start our tour at 08:00 in the morning leaving from Lençóis by mountain bike. After a climb of 4 km, we cross a natural sandy track for 2 hrs (26 km) to reach the small town of Remanso.
From there starts an idyllic 1.5 hour rowboat trip through the Marimbus-marsh (mini Pantanal), framed by the the Serra do Sincora mountains. The wetlands region was formed by the convergence of two rivers (Rio Santo Antônio and Rio Utinga) and is particularly fascinating because of the varied flora and fauna. On the way, you can occasionally see birds and Capuchin monkeys. On rare occasions, you may catch a glimpse of capybaras and caimans. After crossing the Roncador river we will cycle up to Casarão, an old country house where we will be served a typical regional lunch. We will then walk for 20 minutes to the "pasos do Roncador" great natural whirlpools with several small waterfalls and slides. Then we will bike for 2 ½ hours on a historic road back to Lençóis, where we will arrive in the late afternoon. Along the route, we will cross several shallow rivers. We also ride on smaller trails that demand a lot of strength and technique.
