Join us on a beautiful hike along the stunning Caraca Nature Reserve in Minas Gerais, Brazil. With hundreds of hiking options for all levels, we’ll choose the right one for you and your group to ensure a wonderful one-day experience.
The Caraca Nature Reserve covers a 30,000 acre biosphere, ideal for those looking for a day outdoors away from the hustle and bustle of the Brazilian metropolis. All the available trails have breathtaking views, amazing flora and fauna and even waterfalls or beaches.
Caraca also boasts some incredible mountains such as Pico do Sol, Pico do Inficcionado, Pico do Caraça, Pico da Canjerana, Pico da Carapuça, Pico de Catas Altas, Pico da Verruguinha, Pico da Trindade and Pico do Baiano.
The nature reserve offers only one place to stay the night: the old Caraca Monastery. This will be the starting point of our hikes. This monastery was reconstructed into a pousada (inn) and nature reserve after a devastating fire in 1960. Another exciting fact about this accommodation is that it offers the possibility to watch the priests feeding the Guará Wolf at night.
Send your request and we’ll plan an outstanding hike for you and your group in the wonderful Minas Gerais. This dazzling natural reserve is waiting for you.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
