Barra da Estiva - Bahia

Barra da Estiva sits in Bahia's Chapada Diamantina, a base for hills, waterfalls and the Paraguaçu headwaters, with farming at the centre of local life.

Barra da Estiva is a municipality in the Chapada Diamantina that works as a base for walking its hills, trails and waterfalls. It tends to appear in itineraries less as a single postcard and more as a starting point, with local life built around farming and a welcome visitors often remark on.

Administratively, the municipality belongs to the Seabra microregion and to the immediate region of Vitória da Conquista.

The attractions linked to Barra da Estiva in our catalogue are Morro do Ouro, Cachoeira do Bom Jardim (the Bom Jardim waterfall), Morro Santa Bárbara, also known as Morro da Torre, the Nascente do Paraguaçu, the headwaters of the Paraguaçu river, and a set of quilombola communities together with a rock art site.
