Once at the destination, and accompanied by a professional guide who will share all their knowledge with us, we will head to the enormous crater, which is 120m deep and 500m in diameter, a place of pure natural beauty.

Also noteworthy is the presence of a large lake inhabited by caimans; it remains a mystery to experts how they survive in this environment.

The hike, which lasts 90 minutes, is a pleasant 900m walk that will take us along the path through the vegetation to the different panoramic viewpoints that allow us to see the crater in all its immensity.
