Jaraguá – GO Destination Ouro e Cristais
How to get there
For those arriving by plane, the Aeroporto de Goiânia makes it possible to arrange the onward road trip. The GO-080 provides access to the Jaraguá region; confirm the bus connection and the drop-off point before travelling. The walking route reaches the area via the Rio Pari valley.
How many days
Set aside one day for the urban heritage and another for the Serra de Jaraguá. The hiker's rest time should be added to the outings.
When to go
The dry season makes activities in the Serra de Jaraguá easier. The Cavalhadas follow a specific calendar, and visits to the museums should be arranged in advance.
Do you need a car?
The town centre brings together the cultural facilities; a car or hired transport helps reach the Serra's access points. Those who hike the trail on foot should organise different logistics for luggage and overnight stops.
