Gruta da Paixão
Gruta da Paixão is a cave in Andaraí, Bahia, in the Chapada Diamantina, known for mineral formations such as the Asa de Anjo. About 1 km on foot.
Gruta da Paixão is a cave full of mineral formations in Andaraí, Bahia, and it carries the name of the family that has looked after it for generations. Among the formations inside, the one known as Asa de Anjo (the angel's wing) stands out.
Getting there mixes driving and walking: 56 km by car, then about 1 km on foot to the cave entrance. The visit takes around 1h30, with light to moderate physical effort.
Many visitors pair the cave with another outing nearby on the same day, such as Pantanal Marimbus or Poço Azul.
Andaraí is one of the six municipalities that share the Chapada Diamantina National Park, along with Ibicoara, Itaetê, Lençóis, Mucugê and Palmeiras. Being in the municipality is not the same as being inside the park: for whatever lies within the park boundaries, ICMBio recommends hiring a visitor guide, since the trails are not signposted, and there is no mobile phone signal and no entrance fee.
The Vivai catalogue has no active experience for Gruta da Paixão yet, but it does list other attractions in the same municipality, such as Pantanal Marimbus, Piscinas do Rio Roncador, Balneário Rio Paraguaçu and Gruta da Marota.
