Neighbourhood

The pousada is situated on the peaceful outskirts of the village, in a green oasis. Keep an eye out—you may spot hummingbirds or even the occasional monkey among the trees and flowers. Lençóis serves as a gateway to the stunning Chapada Diamantina National Park, offering incredible hikes and tours. It is the perfect place for people who love nature and doing trekking adventures which can be organised as day tours to week tours. Here are six adventures you might love: Vale do Pati Trek – One of Brazil’s most famous multi-day hikes, taking you through breathtaking valleys, waterfalls, and caves. Fumaça Waterfall Trek – A challenging hike leading to one of Brazil’s tallest waterfalls, with jaw-dropping views. Ribeirão do Meio – A shorter hike to a natural waterslide where you can cool off after trekking. Morro do Pai Inácio – A relatively easy hike with a rewarding panoramic view of the Chapada. Poço Azul & Poço Encantado – A tour to stunning blue caves where sunlight creates mesmerizing reflections. Cachoeira do Buracão – A guided tour to a hidden waterfall, where you can swim in a canyon surrounded by towering rock walls. Each hike offers a unique experience—from adrenaline-pumping treks to peaceful swims in crystal-clear waters.

Getting to my home

The best international entry point to Brazil is via Salvador, the capital of Bahia. From Salvador to Lençóis, the most direct option is to fly. Alternatively, you can take a bus, which departs three times a day and takes around 7 hours. Private chauffeurs can be organised to take you directly from the airport to Lencois. Once in Lençóis, the easiest way to explore is by hiring a tour guide, who can customize your itinerary based on your interests.

Nearest airport

The nearest airport is the airport in Lencois (no big planes land here) and the flight takes 1 hour from Salvador . Otherwise you fly to Salvador, Bahia (Brasil) and take a 7 hour bus trip to Lencois.

Getting Around

The Posada Vila Serrano is 300 meters from the village center so an easy stroll down the hill and over the small river into the village center.
