Lencois trip planner

One of a handful of former diamond mining towns in Bahia, Lencois charms visitors with its well-preserved colonial buildings linked by cobbled streets and surrounded by lush green hills. But the historical buildings aren't what most people come to see on their Lencois holiday. The main attraction in Lencois is the nearby Parque Nacional da Chapada Diamantina, whose natural treasures like waterfalls, caves, and scenic plateaus can be easily explored from the town. Many hikers use the town as a base for their expeditions into the national park. Plan your vacation with our Brazil trip planner and discover the best things to do in Lencois.
