Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Costa da Lagoa Trail difficult?
The Costa da Lagoa Trail is approximately 6 km long and is considered moderately difficult. The route passes through sections of Atlantic Forest, old paths and areas with uneven terrain, but it does not involve major elevation changes. As the activity is private, the pace and stops are adapted to the group’s profile.
Crianças podem fazer a Trilha da Costa da Lagoa?
Sim. A Trilha da Costa da Lagoa é uma ótima opção para fazer com crianças, porque o percurso é relativamente plano, agradável e permite caminhar sem grandes subidas. Pelo caminho há vários elementos que ajudam a manter a curiosidade das crianças durante a atividade. Outro ponto que costuma agradar bastante é o retorno de barco pela Lagoa da Conceição, que acaba sendo uma parte muito esperada do passeio depois da caminhada.
Para crianças menores, temos uma mochila especial para carregar crianças, disponível para aluguel, indicada para crianças que já conseguem permanecer sentadas de forma autônoma e pesam até 22 kg. Antes da reserva, avaliamos o perfil da criança e do grupo para orientar a melhor forma de realizar a atividade.
