tem uma pequena caminhada, que a cada olhada é um nova e maravilhosa paisagem.é um local de tranquilidade e observação, onde podemos ver os paredões em toda sua magnitude.um dos passeios que vale mais a pena fazer.
Hired car, driver and guide for the three of us, so this is not a budget expedition.The road there is long bumpy and a mix of dirt and sand.Walking to the viewpoints along the rim was fun but the heat was intense and by the time we got back to town, we were spent.Since you have to first go to the park entrance to get the key, we persuaded the driver to wait for us to stop there and do the short (20 minutes?) walk to the waterfall viewpoint (which is normally not included in the City of Rocks tour.
Beautiful views, great silence and many good photos (that place looks better then photos). Also option to see some birds and small animals!
Cidade de Pedra is closed sinse 2008. You can not go there with guide or without guide, but almost nobody is talking about this, even on the oficial site of city Chapada dos Guimaraes they still didn't put information, they just put attractive information about Cidade de Pedra. And than you arrived in National park you find that even tour agency are not bringing close to Cidade de Pedra just to see this from downstairs. We wanted like another toursit to see this, and we asked in travel agency with name Chapada Explorer to see Cidade (ofice is in the front of the church, they told that Chapada is closed for trakking upstairs, but we are going to see from the side. It is not realy honest....... we saw Cidade from view point may be it was in 50-60 km from us. Sad... Also the trip with this agency is not good value for money. They asked from us 170 real per person for 2 persons and 140 per person if it will be 4 people, we were only 2. Trip with name Rio Claro is very simple, no lunch is included. Agency bring by car to entrance of the national park, there you start to walk between trees. During car driving you can see some nice places for pictures, spectacular views, but driver doesn't want to stop and shows unhappy face. Than you walk is hot and nothing to see. Guide is not speaking english.Good things are view point and swiming in Rio Claro with mask folowing current of river. Try to find another agency to do this trip, because Chapada Explorer is working only for money not for tourists.
As principais atrações da Cidade de Pedra são as curiosas formações rochosas, a mata de cerrado e a fantástica vista dos imensos paredões e do vale abaixo.Mais infos em: http://goo.gl/h0Eckn
It's breathtaking and awesome. Get a guide however otherwise you shall never reach the place and you would miss something my husband and I considered worth while flying 12 hours over to Brazil. No words can describe what we saw (and we are experienced travellers!). Just sit down and keep silent and let this magnificent world get under your skin.
A vista é linda e estar tão perto da imensa depressão que separa Chapada dos Guimarães de Cuiabá é fantástico.
Our experience was similar to the previous review, I think you can only enter with an official guide as the key to the gate is collected from the guards and needs to be returned by 17:15.hr. The views are spectacular, after a long drive we parked and then walked to three different viewing points, we were also lucky to see a macaw flying between the rocks. This is a once in a lifetime experience and worth doing.
Lugar muito bonito, são inúmeras pedras de formatos distintos que formam uma especie de cidade construída através delas...
Trilha bem pequena... mas o visual é fantástico! Cores incríveis. Um mar verde de vegetação. Tem um ponto que faz um eco sensacional... solte a energia contida e dê um bom grito para soltar tudo que a cidade grande te "aperta"!!! :)
