Photographer’s Note

The Jalapão is one of the newest destinations for Nature in Brazil.

Located in the heart of Brazil, the state of Tocantins, on the border with Bahia, Maranhão and Piauí, have one of the lowest population densities in the country.

The difficulty of access was the major responsible for the preservation of this sanctuary where the path touches virgin crystalline water and abundant forming numerous rivers, in the midst of an arid and beautiful landscape. These conditions give life to a great diversity of animals and plants totally adapted to this "cerrado" region (like a savanna).

Once the Jalapão was challenged only by the tropeiros caravans that crossed epic journeys in this wild jungle in the direction of the Tocantins river valley.

Still maintains many of its original features and promises, through the various units of Conservation and Sustainable Tourism, to consolidate as the largest continuous area of preservation of the Brazilian savanna.
