Brazilian routes
A crossing on foot or by bicycle through the Cerrado, between historic towns, mountain ridges and rural villages in Goiás.
The local experience
At the Casa Velha da Ponte, beside the Rio Vermelho, the museum preserves the life and work of Cora Coralina. Opened in 1989, the year of her centenary, the space receives guided visits. It is also the arrival reference of the path dedicated to the writer, but the visit to the collection must be organized separately from the end of the crossing.
Discover Museu Casa de Cora Coralina
The old Casa de Câmara e Cadeia, built in the 18th century, houses the Museu das Bandeiras. Its collection addresses the occupation of the Center-West and the history of Goiás. The building's architecture and the displayed materials are part of the same experience; confirm services before touring the interior.
The palace was the official residence and seat of the governors of Goiás, preserving rooms and furnishings linked to that history. Today it receives visitors as a cultural space. The route through the building allows you to observe courtyards and references to the former administration; availability should be confirmed with the unit.
Discover Palácio Conde dos Arcos
Built in 1778 to supply the former Vila Boa, the fountain combines stone masonry and soapstone details. The aqueduct extending at the rear explains its name. It is an outdoor monument in Praça Brasil Caiado, distinct from the Museu das Bandeiras, although both are part of the same walk around the square.
