Lake tour

Don’t leave Lagos de Menegua without going to the Silence Lake. You can reach the reserve’s largest lake by foot, on the Jeep tour, biking or by horse.

At the lake, guests can fish, ride kayaks or water bikes, as well as a good swim in the natural waterfalls and pools.

Most of the plans that we offer include the entrance to the reserve and the mentioned activities. Verify that yours has it. Otherwise you can get the basic pack of activities at the hotel.

Trekking

All around the reserve, there are trails that let guests explore and connect with nature. Each trail has its own difficulty level, let the concierge at the front desk suggest which is the most suitable.

If you rather have a guided tour, we offer one through the Bear’s trail, a path created by the reserve’s palm bears.
