An experience inside the Kaetés RPPN, a private nature reserve recognised by ICMBio that protects 777 hectares of high-altitude Atlantic Forest between Castelo and Vargem Alta.
A forest safari, a climb up the largest nature observation tower in the Atlantic Forest — with views of Forno Grande peak — and a coffee-and-conversation break with local produce.
Kaetés is the place with the most sightings of the cherry-throated tanager (Nemosia rourei), a rare bird endemic to the mountains of Espírito Santo.
