Walking
The Vale do Pati is primarily accessed by foot via multi-day treks. Most treks begin from the towns of Guiné, Vale do Capão, or Andaraí. From Lençóis, a 2-hour drive to Guiné is common to start the trek. The final approach involves hiking from these towns, with the specific route depending on your chosen itinerary and duration. It's highly recommended to hire a local guide in any of these towns, as trails can be confusing and a guide will enhance your understanding of the area. Costs to consider: * **Guide fees:** Vary depending on the length of the trek and the agency, but expect to pay around R$2200 for a 3-day trek. * **Accommodation:** Staying in local houses typically costs between R$7 and R$10 for a beer or soft drink. * **Park entrance:** There are no mandatory park entrance fees.
