Pousada Do Lado do La
"The highest lodge in Brazil"
Located in “Serra do Papagaio” (it means Parrot's House in Tupi Guarani language), in the “Aiuruoca - Minas Gerais” state at over 1.900 meters of altitude, the “Do Lado de Lá Eco Lodge” enjoys a typically Andean environment full of incredible wildlife.
The lodge is in an area of scenic splendor with dozens of crystalline waterfalls, natural pools and showers, canyons, trails of different difficulty levels, magic peaks, and lost valleys. There are plenty of activities here for nature lovers such as rappelling, horse racing, climbing, mountaineering, motorcycling, mountain biking, off-road, trekking, hiking, bird-watching,, and much more
As the area is quite isolated, it is easy to see wild animals such as seriemas (a type of Brazilian bird), foxes, jaguars, armadillos, tayras, penelopes, hares, and maned wolves, as well as different kinds of birds and hummingbirds. Meals are cooked on wood stoves, which gives food a special taste and the water is drinkable from all taps, fonts, and rivers because this is the source! You can enjoy this area all year round, even in the dead of winter the lodge is warm and very comfortable. There are a number of different room types available depending on how many are in your party, from a couple to a large family you will find all the options spacious and well designed.
