Colorful mountain

It is a very difficult climb because of the altitude and having a patient guide like Milton helps a lot.

Colorful Mountains - Milton's guide was excellent. Access to the mountain we made with a motorcycle. Dear but effective.

Colorful mountains

Very beautiful mountains, interesting! Note: the motorcycles to go up 7 km for 100 reais is absurd
