Super Zipline Brotas: Two Long Ziplines Over Pinheirinho River Valley
Fly high above the Pinheirinho River Valley on two long ziplines—1.1 km and 800 m—then walk a short forest trail to a waterfall. This four-hour Brotas adventure combines serious airtime with accessible safety measures and unforgettable valley views.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive 30 minutes early
Check-in and gearing take time; arriving early ensures you won’t miss the safety briefing and helps with hotel transfers if scheduled.
Wear quick-dry clothing and secure hair
Lightweight layers and a swimsuit under clothes make post-zipline comfort easier; hair clips prevent tangles in the harness.
Footwear for wet and uneven ground
Sneakers or water shoes are required—no heavy jeans or open-toed shoes—to protect your feet and maintain grip on platforms.
Respect weight and health limits
Minimum 50 kg and maximum 110 kg apply; not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with serious spine or heart issues.

Conservation Note
Operators limit group sizes and cancel in heavy rain to reduce trail erosion; support local guides and avoid straying off marked paths to protect fragile riverbanks.
Brotas evolved from 19th-century coffee farms and small mills; its geography—basaltic uplands and river cuts—created the waterfalls and gentle valleys that now fuel the adventure economy.
