Serra da Canastra Experience

Discover the Serra da Canastra on an adventure on two wheels!

On this tour we're going to explore the Serra da Canastra, one of the most beautiful regions in Brazil! Located in the southwest of Minas Gerais, Canastra is home to dozens of waterfalls and the source of the São Francisco River. There will be 3 days of riding in the Canastra, where we'll take dirt roads and get to know its charms and flavors. On the first day in Canastra, we'll explore the Babilônia region on a 120 km loop. On the second day we'll cross the Chapada through Serrinha Branca and other incredible places. On the third day, we'll explore the upper part of the Chapada, inside the national park, visiting the source of the São Francisco River. We'll cross rivers, cross mountains and ride over all kinds of terrain. The region is also known for producing artisanal cheeses, including the famous Queijo Canastra. Our experience also includes a visit to the factory and a tasting. A tourist, gastronomic and riding experience! The tour takes place on the participant's own motorcycle.
