Perfect hike for nature and history lovers, this all-day experience is filled with Natural Pool, Beach, Atlantic Forest, Ruins of the past, and a Delicious Local cuisine.
Dois Rios Beach (Two Rivers beach), is considered by many one of the most beautiful beaches of Ilha Grande, it has one river on each end of the beach, surrounded by stunning mountains and with fine white sand and clear turquoise sea.
The paradisiacal landscape and attractions along the way are more than enough reasons to hike to Dois Rios, but Dois Rios Village is much more than just a breathtaking beach, this Village has a past full of history, scene of numerous events from colonial times when it was a farm until most recently when it hosted for many years a high-security Federal Prison.
On the local today, we find the Museu do Carcere (prison museum) where is possible to learn the history of this famous prison and visit some permisses.
Dois Rios is with no doubt one of the must-see places in Ilha Grande

You need a minimum level of physical condition to make the return trip by walking. The track is very passable, no climbing. It takes 2.5 hours to go there, the same for the return trip through a lush forest. The result at the end is wow!!! The site is magnificent, with the rivers where you can rinse off before returning. A very nice discovery, thank you Mother Nature. You can return by boat, but 150 BRL per person, no thanks.

Bruno, our guide, was absolutely fantastic. He had a wealth of knowledge about the nature and history on Ilha Grande and was so approachable. The walk was a great introduction to the island and Dois Rios was really worthwhile visiting. Thank you so much for this experience!
