Introducing Visconde de Mauá

Mauá is an utterly idyllic river valley that feels like a world unto itself. Prettier and more tranquil than Penedo, it has rushing streams, tinkling goat bells, cozy chalets and country lanes graced with wildflowers. Its isolation is largely thanks to the town’s limited access routes, all via rutted dirt roads over precipitous mountaintops – however you get here, be ready for a bumpy ride!
