Knowing what to pack for Chapada Diamantina impacts your comfort on the trails. The general rule: pack light, but pack smart.

Clothing and Footwear

  • Broken-in trail shoes or hiking boots.
  • Sandals for rivers and waterfalls.
  • Lightweight, quick-drying clothing.
  • Warm layer for cool evenings.
  • Lightweight rain jacket.

For Day Outings

  • Small daypack.
  • Water bottle.
  • Sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses.
  • Insect repellent.
  • Headlamp.
  • Dry bag for phone and documents.

For Multi-Day Treks

For Vale do Pati, a 30 to 40-liter backpack is ideal. Overnights in local families' homes mean you won't need a tent.

  1. Pack clothing for each day in separate plastic bags.
  2. Carry a basic first-aid kit.
  3. Don't forget cash: there's no cell service or card payment available in the valley.
