Trilha de nível fácil, mas com alguns locais mais íngremes perto dos poços de banho. Quem tem problemas nos joelhos pode ter alguma dificuldade de acessar essas áreas.

Route

The entrance to the Vale da Lua is along the GO-239 highway, between São Jorge and Alto Paraíso de Goiás. The trail is easy and short, over rocks in an open field. Along the way, you can get close to the edge of the craters to look at the river and some pools, and it is important to be careful. At the end, you will find the largest of the natural pools, ideal for swimming. The entrance to Vale da Lua is along the GO-239 highway, between São Jorge and Alto Paraíso de Goiás.
